Enjoy a day of serenity spent with other women, submersed in the peacefulness of nature. We will enjoy a  leisurely canoe paddle on the Patuxent River, where we will look for wildlife and flowering wetland plants along the shoreline. We will enjoy a gourmet catered lunch at the historic Riggleman House, located on Jug Bay’s newest property. Fee includes naturalist canoe guides, all canoe equipment, gourmet lunch and park admission. A hike/walk in the woods will be substituted if weather conditions do not allow for canoeing.
