Special Event: Meet Me At the Mystic

Paddling, art and music to celebrate the Mystic on Saturday, Sept. 8.

Join your friends and neighbors in an early morning cheer to the Mystic River and watershed – a resource that has brought so much enjoyment to our community.  Meet friends of the Mystic and the Mystic River Watershed Association at 9 a.m. on Saturday, Sept. 8 at the parking lot beside the new dam between the Upper and Lower Mystic Lakes. 

Come by bike, boat, on foot or drive. Bring strollers and your dog - whatever usually brings you to the shores of this urban beauty. We have a full family-friendly schedule that will stretch from the dam to Alewife Brook as we plan to have artists and music along the banks for your morning enjoyment.

Rent a boat!
Boats will be available at 9 a.m. at a discounted rental fee: $15 for single kayaks and $25 for canoes and double kayaks. Reserve your boat here! Of course, you can also bring your own boat to join in the fun. Join others in a trip down to the Alewife Brook starting at 9:30 a.m.

This event is part of the Mystic River Watershed Association's 40th Anniversary! Read more about Meet Me at the Mystic and other special 40th Anniversary events here.
