About the event
The Paddle The Border (PTB) event is in its 23rd year! PTB was started as a way for community organizations from Vermont and New Hampshire to work together to showcase our shared asset - the Connecticut River. PTB promotes the natural, cultural, historic, scenic, and recreational resources of the Connecticut River, in a way that also provides an economic boost to the area. PTB is held twice a year (Spring and Fall), weather permitting. No rain dates are planned.
There is a free shuttle from the take out to launch site. It will leave at 10am and then again at 11am. Drop you boat, gear, and passengers off at launch site, drive to the take out, and a bus will bring you back to launch site. Travel time ~ 1/2 hour with drop off and traffic. Give yourself extra time!
Music and cookout to follow at Bedell Bridge State Park!
