This is the second time in 3 seasons Boating in DC has extended their season at Thompson which is located in Foggy Bottom.
Outside the District
There are still a few places outside of the District to rent a kayak on a beautiful, unseasonably warm November weekend.
Fountainhead Regional Park in Fairfax County is scheduled to be open through November 11. Annapolis Canoe and Kayak has year-round rentals though a wetsuit or drysuit is required as the water gets colder.
Bladensburg Waterfront Park may be open even though they officially closed on Sunday.
Kayak cleanups
ALEXANDRIA, Va. — Would you like to kayak in November and also support a worthy cause? The Four Mile Run Conservatory Foundation has three more scheduled kayak cleanups for 2022:
- Sunday, November 6, 9:30 a.m. -12:30 p.m.
- Saturday, November 19, 1:00 p.m. – 4:00 p.m.
Registration is free – I participated the last two years and enjoyed both the stewardship and the kayaking. Unfortunately, Four Mile Run can use all the help. Nevertheless, this is a fun way to help make the community a better place.
Sign-ups are open 2-4 weeks prior to each scheduled event.
