Numerous ecological regulations impact our fish, yet few volunteers are interested in doing the hard work of registering them to vote. Canvas your local waterways with today's Groupon: for $20, you get a two-hour guided nature kayaking trip (up to a $40 value) from OKC RIVERSPORT. Tours launch from the Route 66 Boathouse on the east shore of Lake Overholser and run from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. on Fridays or 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. on Sundays. RIVERSPORT provides the safety gear and all necessary equipment.
With access to some of the best waterways in the Oklahoma City metro area, OKC RIVERSPORT caters to aquanauts and aquanewbs who seek to escape the hustle and bustle of downtown life, but don't want to drive for hours to do it. The nature kayaking trip takes serenity-starved cruisers by the paddle and leads them up the North Canadian River through Stinchcomb Wildlife Refuge, a 1000-acre Arcadia nestled within the northwest outskirts of Oklahoma City. During the course of the two-hour guided trip, kayakers will have the opportunity to spy on an abundance of songbirds and waterfowl as they nest in Stinchcomb's forested areas, glide through its tranquil wetlands, and play blackjack in its riverside pleasure-boats.
OKC RIVERSPORT's nature kayaking route is appropriate for experienced kayakers aged 13 or older, although ages eight and older can ride with a guardian. Buy Groupons for the whole family and help them get close to nature in a way that doesn't involve zipping them up in a tauntaun suit for warmth.
Call ahead to reserve your trip spot.
