A gentle river float down the Bow from Bowness Park to Sunnyside. We may make a stop at Angel's Cafe located along the river at Edworthy Park. Here you can grab a bite to eat and use the washrooms. They have burgers, smokies, wraps, cold drinks, ice cream and more! After a short break we will head back into the water to complete our river adventure.

Note that wearing your PFD (personal floatation device/life jacket) is THE LAW and mandatory at all times while on the river. When out on your own you may use your own discretion, but when participating in a COC event, everyone must wear their PFD at ALL TIMES.
