At 1:45, all participants will gather at the Paddle Dog patio (1006 Westhaven Blvd, Franklin, TN 37064).
At 2:00, we'll begin the Santa Strut around the lake. You're welcome to bring your pup for this part - just be sure you have a plan for them once it's time to hit the water. We'll complete one lap around the lake.
After the Strut, all paddlers will board their watercraft and begin the paddle to the jingling tune of fun Santa songs. Paddle away, and be courteous to fellow paddlers. Have fun!
After a short paddle, we'll ring in the Santas for a well-earned cookie break. Enjoy the rest of the festival!
This event is rain or shine. In the event that weather interferes with the paddle, registration fees are non-refundable. All registration proceeds are going to help the animals of Williamson County! All registered participants will be notified by email and/or text of any updates or changes regarding weather.
