The Napa River Paddle will be returning this year! It will be held on Saturday, May 15 and start from Napa College Boat Launch at Kennedy Park in Napa and end at the 9th Street Boat Launch. We will stop at the guest dock at the Vallejo Marina to rest and swap out paddlers. Sign-up on TeamSnap and indicate if you would like to do the full 22 miles from Napa to Benicia or only from Napa to Vallejo (14 miles) or from Vallejo to Benicia (8 miles).
