"I stepped out of the box with this and I stepped out of my comfort zone to have fun with my friends in the water today.”
- Derek, 8th Grade Student in Grand Rapids
We welcomed back our 2024 spring #Canoemobile national tour from several successful months of paddling, connecting, and learning! From the Santa Barbara Harbor to Michigan's Grand River, Canoemobile connected thousands of participants across the West Coast and Midwest to their local waterways. Shared outdoor experiences continue to be a positive force in building community and Wilderness Inquiry is proud to be part of these connections. Thanks to all of our partners including Bureau of Land Management, U.S. Forest Service, Blue Star Families, and Toad&Co for supporting Canoemobile.
#FSUrbanConnections
Our 2024 #Canoemobile season launched yesterday as Rig 1 of our spring tour headed out to California! This year, Caneomobile will bring hands-on outdoor learning and exploring to 50+ communities across the county. With several new stops and program areas, we are excited to connect more people in more places to their local rivers, lakes, and green spaces. Stay tuned for updates from the road!
