Kent State University Recreational Services will have kayaks and canoes available to try out for free, and will also provide instruction in using a stand-up paddleboard. Participants will be able to enjoy a cookout, educational programs and many other activities. Rain date is August 8. For complete details, visit friendsofhudsonparks.org. ∞
