Park to Park Paddle 2011 Highlights

 

Park to Park 2011 was July 23rd.  This was the 10th Annual paddle from Neenah to Appleton.   136 boats made the journey on the Fox River through Lake Winnebago and Little Lake Butte Des Mortes.  Early morning thunderstorms and a threat of more in the forecast kept the participation down.  We had sunny weather and light winds for the entire trip.

Park to Park is put on by Northeast Wisconsin Paddlers.  There are 2 more NEWP paddle trips planned for 2011.  The Moonlight Paddle from Depere to Green Bay on Friday, August 12th and the Appleton Locks Paddle on September 24.
