Join in on what has become a tradition for Dayton's Paddlesports community, the Wednesday Nite Paddle, down our local waterway, the Mad River. Enjoy the transition from an urban wilderness to the downtown Dayton skyline. We paddle approximately three miles of what is considered "moving water" from Eastwood MetroPark to the Keowee Street Bridge. This river trip generally takes 1 ¼ to 1 ½ hours.

Shuttles leave from Whitewater Warehouse at 5:15, 6:00 and 6:45. Equipment and shuttle slots are available on a first come first serve basis. Dress to get wet, and be ready to have some fun!

Note: This is not a guided river trip. New boaters may consider attending recreational kayaking classes prior to participating. Our Kayak Basic class will get you started; Basic River Running will teach you to deal with moving currents and controlling your boat; and the Safety Skills class will teach you to deal with basic safety, including self-rescue situations. We offer classes that you can attend or not attend. It is ultimately your decision as to whether you are comfortable and qualified to participate in this river trip.

Payment by cash or check preferred and we will pick up the tab for the sales tax. Sales tax is not included when paying with credit card.
