Women on the Water (WOW) Kayak 

Enjoy a day of serenity spent with other women, submersed in the peacefulness of nature. We will enjoy a  leisurely kayak paddle on the Patuxent River, where we will look for wildlife and flowering wetland plants along the shoreline. We will paddle in the morning and enjoy a gourmet catered lunch at the historic Riggleman House, located on Jug Bay’s newest property. After lunch we will go on a 1-3 mile nature hike. Fee includes naturalist kayak guides, all kayak equipment, gourmet lunch and park admission. A 4-5 mile nature hike/walk in the woods will be substituted if weather conditions do not allow for kayaking.

•    Independently participate in all activities while maintaining an appropriate and safe body position.
•    Manage all personal care and personal mobility independently.
•    Effectively communicate with leaders and other participants.
