WALK-UP SPOTS AVAILABLE FOR MOST SHIFTS!

Come enjoy a lovely sunset on the water, and explore the floating islands, bridges, and riverside wildlife of Bubbly Creek! Urban Rivers and our partners have been hard at work reintroducing native habitat to this historic Chicago waterway. Our free kayak days connect the local community with this pocket of nature in the heart of the city. 

No experience required! This program is targeted at the communities directly surrounding Bubbly Creek (Pilsen, Bridgeport, Chinatown, and Mckinley Park), but all are welcome. Children under 10 years old must share a kayak with a parent or guardian, as we are unable to offer tandem kayaks. All participants must sign a waiver before kayaking, and/or have a waiver signed on their behalf by a legal guardian. 

Our shifts each run for an hour - if you are not present by the start time of your shift, we will yield your spot to walk-up participants, so please plan to be a few minutes early! 

If kayaking isn't your thing, don't worry! Our partners at Shedd Aquarium will be running land-based activities centered around nature, science, and stewardship.
