17th Annual Kayak Fundraiser & Cleanup
Batiquitos Lagoon Foundation (BLF) will be holding its 17th Annual Kayak Fundraiser & Cleanup Event. This event allows kayakers to enjoy a 2-hour event at the lagoon that is normally closed to boating, while simultaneously aiding in preserving the lagoon habitat by removing trash. In the past as much as 1,000 pounds of trash has been collected. Proceeds benefit BLF’s many educational and wetland preservation programs.
The cost is $150 for a two-person kayak, and children as young as 6 may participate when accompanied by an adult or guardian. Two-person kayaks, safety equipment, and Water Safety Guides will be provided. For more information, and to register online, visit the BLF web site. Early registration is advised so participants can reserve their preferred timeslots.
The Batiquitos Lagoon Foundation is a 501(c) 3 non-profit corporation that formed in 1983 with the mission to Preserve, Protect and Enhance the Batiquitos Lagoon Ecological Reserve. i-5/La Costa Ave. Park-and-ride lot, Carlsbad
