Far as I know we are allowed. I have talked with george who is the president of the labrae athletic's. Make sure you park by the river, out of the way of the fields.
From the fields to canoe city is about 2 hours. It is a nice and easy flat ride. Once you hit the 82 by pass on the mahoning you are 1 mile from canoe city.

I do this section alot, and it is my run as well for the picnic and later this fall we hope to be opening the new thomas swifty park just down from the ball fields.

Any questions just ask.
