What to Expect

  • 2.The crowd tends to be laid-back and family-focused, so it's easy to wander from demo to demo without feeling rushed.
  • 3.Pack water and snacks; you may be outdoors in the afternoon and shade can be limited, so come prepared.
  • 4.Wear sturdy shoes and sunscreen; some trails can be uneven and you'll be outside most of the time.
  • 5.If you want to canoe, ask whether life jackets are provided or bring a personal flotation device.
