Join NRCM staff for a paddle with Atlantic Salmon Federation’s Jeff Reardon to explore why the Sandy is vital for the recovery of Atlantic salmon and other sea-run fish. This 11 mile, 3-4-hour paddle begins in Strong and ends in Fairbanks area of Farmington.

We will provide a shuttle and have a limited number of PFDs, canoes, and kayaks. There will also be a Registered Maine Guide accompanying us on this wonderful trip.
