This non-competitive Extreme Kayak & Canoe Paddle where only the toughest of the tough dare paddle the river, river conditions and bridge construction permitting. Paddlers will travel approximately 2.7 miles of the Lackawanna River in Scranton from the Parker Street Landing to Sweeney's Beach. Paddlers who are willing to brave the winter on the river should have their own vessel, PFD (mandatory) and wetsuit (strongly recommended). Launch is High Noon, currently scheduled at the Parker Street Bridge. Please check back here or our Facebook page for updates.

Arrive at launch site (Parker Street Landing) early (11 a.m. – 11:30 a.m.) to sign in. This is to help us keep track of paddlers on the river.
At the landing site (Sweeney’s Beach), we ask paddlers to please check in with staff or a volunteer so that we can make sure everyone is safely off the river.

The LRCA will host a Thaw Party from 1:30 - 4 p.m. at Groove Brewing, 1401 Sanderson Ave. in Scranton. Preregister for $20 per person ($25 at the door!):
