Join us for a scenic guided paddle with Dr. Rick Van de Poll! This paddle will take you from Meredith Neck to LRCT’s Stonedam Island Conservation Area in Meredith, a 112-acre property with 2.7 miles of undeveloped shoreline acquired by LRCT in 1982. Participants will have the opportunity to learn about one of the most significant undeveloped island parcels on the Lake. The round-trip distance of this paddle will be approximately 4 miles. The level of difficulty is moderate, but please keep in mind that weather conditions on that day may affect the difficulty.
