Eagle Creek Tuesday Evening Paddles

Eagle Creek paddles started on June 24th and run through the end of September.  These are unstructured paddles where HCKC members can explore the lake and train to develop speed-endurance or to practice skills.   If you would like to paddle with other HCKC members, I would recommend coordinating that through the club bulletin board, Facebook or e-mail.

• When:    Tuesday, June 24th through September 30, 2025
• Starting Time - Between 1:00 pm to Closing:  HCKC Members may use the pass to independently enter the park with their boats any time after 1:00 pm on the specified Tuesdays. In general, there is a group which meets at 5 PM at the Discovery Center.  We normal start padding around 5:30 PM Contact Jeff Stejskal Jeffs45321@hotmail.com for more information.
• Ending Time - Park Closing Time:   When you enter the park, look at the closing time posted at each of the park entrances since these times change during the year.  They normally lock at least one of the gates at closing time.
• Where to Launch: 
• Ramp near Discovery Center —Enter the park at either the 56th Street or 71st Street entrance and follow the signs to the Discovery Center or “Go Ape!”  Use the boat/kayak ramp across the parking lot from the Discovery Center (next to Go Ape). 
• Marina Personal Boat Launch - You can also launch from the personal boat launch next to the building with bathrooms near Eagle Creek Outfitters.  Please do not launch at the beach at Eagle Creek Outfitters since it is reserved for their use.
