Boat Launch Today


Join us today in Darden Towe Park as we finish up our boat building workshops with City of Charlottesville campers. We'll be putting the last touches on the boat and then launching it into the Rivanna River. Floating expected though not assumed! Rain or shine, but if there's thunder we'll do it another day. From 10 to 11 we'll be at the Keelboat Barn in Darden Towe Park, and around 11 we'll bring the new wooden boat to the Darden Towe Park Boat Launch. To get to the Keelboat Barn, take a right when you get into the park, and continue on until you pass the soccer fields and picnic shelter. To get to the Boat Launch, take a left when you get into the park. Curve around and after the curve you'll see a parking lot to your left that's adjacent to the Boat Launch.
