Join us for a magical evening paddle on the Connecticut River. The Perseid meteor shower, or the Perseids, is one of the most popular and highly anticipated meteor showers of the year. We’ll start on the Connecticut River in Montague at 8pm and proceed to the Sunderland boat ramp. This three-hour paddle will pass through the most remote stretch of the Connecticut River in Massachusetts with the darkest skies, allowing us an incredible opportunity to paddle under the Perseids at its peak. With calm waters and serene surroundings, this evening paddle is one not to be missed.
