Rock River from Beloit to Riverside Park, Sunday, June 26, 2022.
We will meet at the launch site at 4th St (Route 213), Beloit, WI in the back parking lot of the Beloit Bicycle Company, just north of the Rock River at 09:30 am.
For a shorter trip, if there is interest, we can run a second shuttle on the other side of the river to stop at Macktown FP.
It is about a 6.5 to Macktown and 13 mile trip to Riverside Park.
The car shuttle will leave at 10:00. This should allow us to be on the river at 10:30.
We will stop for lunch at the Rockton Dam that we have to portage around.

I am interested in joining your group for a few paddles if possible. I heard about your group from a member who I met on a Rocktown Adventure excursion today on the Sugar River. Any information you can connect me to about your group and the schedule of events will be greatly appreciated.
We are a small group of paddlers that does local lakes and rivers in in the northern IL and southern WI area. If you would like I can put you on a our emailing list or you can sign up on this WEB page. I try to keep our schedule up to date on the this WEB page. We are also on Facebook as well.
