This year's Pedal, Paddle, Play is IN-PERSON on July 17th at Promenade Park. Current circumstances have changed the way we live our daily lives, but the trails still call- Pedal, Paddle, Play is your chance to get out and discover something new, contribute to fund-raising efforts to improve paddle sport access on our region's waterways, and have the chance to win some great prizes.

Registered participants will meet at Promenade Park - North on July 17 to head out on the land and water trails on a scavenger hunt for hidden prizes. Participants will also receive tickets to win even more at the famous Pedal, Paddle, Play prize drawing! (Masks will be required while at the registration/packet pick-up table, while visiting with exhibitors, and when social distancing is not possible if not vaccinated against Covid-19).

All are welcome to join the after party at the Auer Lawn from 12-noon - 2pm where you can learn from area environmental and recreation groups, get a cold beverage from Trubble Riverfront, and be entertained by the musical talents of local legend Pink Droyd!

The purpose of this event is to encourage the exploration of the water and land trails in NE Indiana, and raise funds for the Northeast Indiana Water Trails to improve access to outdoor recreation on our regional waterways. Funds raised this year will be used to continue the Trail Head sign program for the 87 boat access sites on flowing waters in NE Indiana.
