Canoeing the Skokie Lagoons

Explore the Skokie Lagoons on a canoe!  Professional canoe guides from Chicago River Canoe take you on a canoeing adventure along the lagoons and through the forest setting where herons hunt in the shallows and turtles bask on fallen trees.  You will navigate around islands to find some hidden spots. The Lagoons are a placid body of water, so it's a good trip for beginners, as well as more experienced canoe-ers. Instruction will be provided.  Meet at the Chicago River Canoe launch on Tower Road just west of Forest Way Drive. Registration is $29 member; $35 non-member.  To register call (847) 784-6030.
