📣“My No. 1 thing is that everyone should wear a life jacket, especially in canoes and kayaks,” Waller said.📣

Ranger Waller talks about getting on the water safely and boating guidelines, and our friend Charlie of Taiters Kayak shares more info about renting kayaks this summer!

Warm sunshine, a slight breeze and calm, cool water – the peacefulness of paddling is unmatched.

There's one really easy thing you can do to keep from putting wildlife in danger: pick up your line. 🎣 Fishing GOAT and outdoor recreation program coordinator, Thomas, shares a little bit about our fishing line recycling program. This program helps keep wildlife -especially birds- from getting tangled up in line litter.

Find more fun ways you can protect birds by participating in MetroParks Birding Challenge. Link in comment to register and learn more.
