Start of the 1998 1st Annual Terrapin Creek Canoe & Kayak Race.

New for 2012! Stand Up Paddle Boards (SUP's) and accessories in-stock from BIC, Imagine Surf and Surftech. Come check 'em out!

Update: The upper section of Terrapin Creek from Frank Stewart Bridge down to Terrapin Outdoor Center is open and suitable to float! This section of creek was blocked by over 150 downed trees as a result of the April 2011 tornado and had been unfloatable until now. Thank you to all of the volunteers that donated time, energy, effort and money to re-open the most popular, scenic and paddled portion of Terrapin Creek for everyone to use and enjoy again. Now let's go paddlin'!
