Prerequisites
Ability to swim

Join us for another beginner-friendly morning paddle on the Mystic Lakes! We will be meeting outside the Student Center to pick up the paddleboards at 8am and will be back on campus around 12pm. No prior paddleboarding experience is needed, but you must be able to swim.

The paddleboards must be dried before being returned to the MITOC office, so each participant will need to take their paddleboard home to dry after the trip and return it to the office during the week. The fee for this trip will be the $15 paddleboard rental cost plus a small carpooling fee.

As part of the back-to-school initiative, current MIT students will be prioritized for this trip, especially if you were waitlisted for last weekend’s paddleboarding trip. If you have your own car and are able to drive people, please update your profile to show this.

In the event of a wind forecast over 10 knots or a water quality advisory, we may reschedule to Sunday, September 29, weather permitting.
