PeterB Posted August 7, 2019 Share Posted August 7, 2019 (edited) A small handful of us were at Walden last night and had a good time. The small boaters/ handicapped parking was mostly occupied with an adaptive paddlesports program , which made the whole arrive/park/depart operation worse than it already is. That program will continue on Tuesday evenings for the next 4 weeks, so we talked about Wednesday as a possible day for Walden sessions. Wednesdays would work for everyone present last night. Any feedback? Edited August 12, 2019 by PeterB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billvoss Posted August 7, 2019 Share Posted August 7, 2019 I did some web searching, and it may be less of an issue than we expected last night. Based on https://www.mass.gov/info-details/adaptive-program-schedule#kayak-with-waypoint-adventure- Quote Beginners of all ages at Walden Pond State Reservation, Concord Tuesday, July 16: 5 p.m.–7 p.m. Tuesday, July 30: 1 p.m.–3 p.m. Tuesday, Aug 6: 5 p.m.–7 p.m. Tuesday, Aug 13: 1 p.m.–3 p.m. Tuesday, Aug 20: 3 p.m.–5 p.m. Walden Pond State Reservation, Concord Introductory level Tuesday, July 16: 2 p.m.–4 p.m. Tuesday, Aug 6: 2 p.m.–4 p.m. Tuesday, Aug 13: 10 a.m.–12 p.m. Tuesday, Aug 20: 12 p.m.–2 p.m. Unless I missed a listing, it looks like the adaptive program is supposed to end around 3pm on August 13th, and 5pm on August 20th. Even allowing them time to cleanup, it looks like only August 20th is likely to impact us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken Posted August 7, 2019 Share Posted August 7, 2019 Looks like 8/13 will be okay. 8/20 might be best to do something else as it will take them a while after 5:00 to clear out of the lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billvoss Posted August 11, 2019 Share Posted August 11, 2019 Wednesday, August 14th this week? Mainly because of the rain in the forecast, not because of the adaptive program. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PeterB Posted August 12, 2019 Author Share Posted August 12, 2019 I can't attend this week: back in action next week, Tuesday or Wednesday. Peter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joyce Carpenter Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 If the rain is bad today, how will the water quality be tomorrow? If we think it’s ok,I might try to make it. Also, shouldn’t this post be in the trip forum rather than this general forum. I’m surprised I noticed it in here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
