Join Glacier State Paddlers for canoeing on the Bark River from Lower Nemahbin Lake to Genesee Lake Rd on Sunday, June 21. Meet at the Sugar Island launch area between 1:00 pm and 1:30 pm. To get there, take I-94 west to Sawyer Rd/ Hwy P. Turn left/south. Turn left on Sugar Island Rd. It dead ends at Lake Nemahbin with 2 parking lots. Please read the signs. The car shuttle is only 1 mile.

This is an easy, scenic trip on a surprisingly clear “close to town” river. It's a short and pretty river/marsh channel. Cool off along the way with a swim in Crooked Lake halfway thru. Bring toys! After we take out at Genesee Lake Rd, we will head to Cushing Memorial Park west of Delafield for a cookout. It was advised that nobody bring a dish to pass, this time! So bring your own food and drinks. Grills will be provided. The park has some tables, but it won't hurt to bring a chair and table.
