In need of a romantic night out? Maybe something fresh, something to get you out and enjoying the stunning spring weather?  Join Carolina Thread Trail at Riverside Marina Paddle and Row for a serene evening along the Catawba River. Arrive at 6:30 p.m and explore the river with a CTT staff guide and your significant other by your side, in single kayaks or a double kayak. At 7:30, we will return to the Marina so you can recline on a blanket, eat dinner, and enjoy the sunset on a grass field along the riverbank. You are welcome to bring your own dinner, a blanket, and any other beverages you would like. Your ticket also comes with one of our Carolina Thread Trail Pale Ales for your enjoyment!
