We will put in at Bold Point in East Providence, paddle across Providence Harbor, through the Fox Point Hurricane Barrier, and up the Providence and Woonasquatucket Rivers to the Cove at the Providence Place Mall. Meet at 9:30 for a 10:00 launch

Here is the Google Maps link to put-in at Bold Point:

Hi all - we are on for tomorrow. Launching promptly at 10:00. Be sure to bring water. It is too hot to paddle upstream past the mall, so we should be back to the put in by 12:00.
