With daytime temperatures heating up, Summer Splash offers a day of cool relief. Paddle and drift past the river`s natural grandeur; witness a great blue heron in flight or the riffles of a river otter swimming. After completing the float enjoy an afternoon of music, food and fun for the entire family at the Powers Island festivities.
