Full Moon Paddle - SOLD OUT

Get ready for a beautiful evening on the river under this month's full moon! Join Ijams naturalists for this 2-hour, guided paddle to uncover the secrets of the Tennessee River after dark and learn about the beautiful night sky while searching for unique plants, animals, and geologic features along the way.

Ages: This program is designed for ages 14+. All participants under the age of 18 MUST be accompanied by an adult.

Accessibility: Ijams Nature Center's kayak launch and dock contain accessible elements to help those with mobility and access challenges get out on the water. The dock, launch, and approach do not, however, meet ADA requirements for a truly accessible dock. If you or someone in your party requires accessibility accommodations, please reach out to Kat Livar at klivar@ijams.org to discuss options before purchasing tickets.

Location: This program meets at the boat dock at Ijams River Landing. Vehicle access to Ijams River Landing is on Island Home Avenue, 0.2 miles southeast of Ijams Nature Center's main parking lot.

Materials Participants Should Bring: Comfortable shoes, hat, sunglasses, water bottle, snacks, weather appropriate clothing, sunscreen, and a hands-free way to carry everything. Clothes and shoes that dry fast or are fine getting wet are preferred. Kayaks, paddles, and personal flotation devices will be provided; however, participants are welcome to bring their own.

Please check your junk mail folder the day before this program if you have not received an email containing program details.

No walk-ins will be accepted. Every participant must have a ticket. Ijams awards full refunds for any cancellations up to 7 days before a program, or if Ijams cancels a program due to inclement weather. Refunds are not awarded for programs with fees of $5 or less for any reason. Tickets are non-transferable.
