Here is the write-up from the newsletter
Lake Wilhelm Trip Leader Steve Preston When- Sunday June 26th Where- 519 Lake Wilhelm Rd, Sandy Lake, PA 16145 GPS 41.420410 -80.155055 ? (GPS for exact launch site 41.418990, -80.148914) Time 9:30-10 am Lake Wilhelm at Goddard State Park in Mercer County PA, Sunday, June 26, 2016 We will gather at the Marina boat launch between 9:30 and 10:00 AM. No shuttle will be involved so we want to depart about 10 AM. We will be going on a round trip heading north to start. ***This is a flat water paddle so it will be excellent for all skill levels including beginner and first timers so please invite them all to join us. Some kayaks and canoes are available for rent at the lake marine concession (Rental price is a bit steep). ***We will be traveling about 6 miles total. Binoculars and cameras will help. We should see bald eagles, ospreys, cormorants, great blue herons, Canada geese, and various ducks, king fishers, hawks, seagulls and crows at the least. ***Directions are easy. Take I-80 to I-79 north, go north on I-79 two exits, turn left on Route 358, Just across the bridge you will bare right (Brown sign for Goddard State Park), Follow this road to crossroads, Turn Right and follow to lake. Marina will be on right before crossing the causeway, turn into marina drive and go straight all the way to the back and boat launch is back there. ***Couple of extra things of interest are: **The Free Pioneer Frolic will be ongoing at the marina featuring Pre-1840s displays, Live music and vendor?s. It is located right around the corner from the put-in. **Goddard State Park has (I my humble opinion) the nicest bike trail in NW PA. It is a 12-mile loop around the lower lake and runs right by the put-in. This trail is paved and has curves and hills and bridges going thru fields and woodlands. If you like to bike maybe bring it along also for a double outing. ***Websites to visit for more info: http://www.dcnr.state.pa.us/statepar...auricekgoddard http://friendsofgoddard.com/frolic.html |

Many Thanks go to Steve for putting together a nice paddle. This was my first time on Lake Wilhelm with good company.
We had 9 boats, 12 paddlers. 7 kayaks (one of them was a two person Kayak) 2 canoes. It was nice to walk around the festival and see some cool things. I know Ron was happy to get some fries!!!! Mike |
