Join the Green Team on a nighttime paddle to Tichora Conservancy. Paddling by moonlight is a uniquely beautiful and exhilarating experience. Listen to the diverse sounds of nature at nighttime and let a nearly full moon be your guide. Bring your canoe or kayak and paddle your way over to Tichora for a bonfire!

Acquired in 2018 by the Green Lake Conservancy, this 40 acre parcel of undeveloped land was formerly operated as Camp Grow. Located along Green Lake’s unspoiled south shore in Dickinson Bay, it also borders Spring Lake to create a riparian habitat for a large diversity of wildlife. An exceptionally scenic property with sandstone cliffs, shallow caves and towering trees, Tichora features hiking and other allowable uses under the Knowles-Nelson Stewardship Grant program.

GEAR TO BRING: Bring your kayaks/canoes, equipment, life vests, drinks and good walking shoes. Glow-Sticks will be provided at the event so the group can safely make their way to Tichora from Spring Lake without ruining their night vision. A flashlight is recommended for getting in and out of the water.

PARKING AND LAUNCH SITE: The event will start and end at Spring Valley County Park located at the east end of Spring Lake. To get to the launch site turn north from CO K onto Lakeview RD. Once on Lakeview Rd in a short distance you will turn left at the Spring Valley Park sign onto Spring Lake Rd. The park and launch site are located at the end of Spring Lake Rd.

This event is weather dependent. In the event that conditions are unsuitable for the event, the event will be rescheduled. Please visit the Green Lake Association’s calendar of events at http://www.greenlakeassociation.com/glaw/index.php/calendar-of-events/ for the latest updates.
