This event is appropriate for all skill levels. Beginners and experts are welcome!
Please remember to dress appropriately for the weather (rain or shine) and wear clothes you won't mind getting wet.
Remember to bring a full water bottle as there is no accessible running water on site.
One ticket covers the cost of one person. Ticket is non-refundable but transferable.
Directions:
Walk/Bicycle: There are many places along M street that bring you down to the C&O canal, or walk down Wisconsin until you arrive at K Street. Walk West (keeping the water to your left) until you find the boathouse beneath Key Bridge.
From Rosslyn Metro (¾ mile): walk across Key Bridge and take the stairs on either side down to the canal. There are footbridges across the canal that lead to stairs on Water St. Walk back toward the bridge and the boathouse is located directly below Key Bridge.
From Foggy Bottom Metro (1 mile): From the rotary, walk West on K street toward the waterfront. If you follow the waterfront park, the boathouse is located just on the other side of Key Bridge.
Driving: Please simply put in your GPS 3500 Water Street Northwest, Washington, DC, 20007. Unfortunately, there is NO PARKING within 3 blocks of boathouse. We recommend you get there by metro or park at the Lowes Movie Theater lot, or street parking on Water Street.
