Holiday Lights Winter Paddle Parade

Every year Bend’s most ded­i­cated paddling enthusiasts dress up their canoes and kayaks in bright lights and hol­i­day garb and pad­dle around the Deschutes River for a few hours for Tumalo Creek Kayak & Canoe’s Holiday Lights Winter Paddle Parade in the Old Mill Dis­trict. This is one of those events that gets the whole town in the spirit and feels very authen­tic to Bend.

Pad­dlers should meet at Tumalo Creek Kayak & Canoe on Fri­day, Decem­ber 15, 2017 from 2-3:30 p.m. to decorate. After the crowd assem­bles, we’ll depart from the dock around 4:00pm behind the shop and pad­dle upstream up to the Flag Bridge.
