Join us for a float trip on the Sangamon River!

The USRC can provide canoes and kayaks on as needed basis and help with shuttling watercraft for this event.

This will be a slow-paced relaxing trip with a break for swimming on a nice little gravel bar beach, for those so inclined. Feel free to pack a lunch for out break! You may bring beverages of your choice and don’t forget the sunblock!

Trip participants join with other participants at their own risk and the USRC accepts no liability for participants. All participants will be expected to sign a liability waiver before departure.

Please remember that the Sangamon River is moving water with random hazards present in the form of floating debris and places where passages may be blocked requiring portage.

Participants must be skilled with handling, navigating, steering and entering and exiting a canoe or kayak in any of these potential conditions.

The USRC recommends wearing floatation and has appropriate floatation in various sizes available for participants.
