Lock Thru
REMINDER:  Flatwater Paddle down the North Chickamauga Creek then Lock Through the Chickamauga Dam!  June 7, 10 AM
 
This Saturday, June 7,  TVCC  is offering a unique opportunity to paddle through the Chickamauga Dam!  The trip begins at the Greenway Farm ramp in Hixson and continues down the N. Chick to the Tennessee River at the dam.  We will then lock through and continue the trip on the TN River/Chickamauga Lake  to the Chickamauga Marina.  
 
This is an easy, fun trip of about 4 total miles, that can take approximately 3.5 to 4 hours depending on the lock cycle .  We will lock through going upstream with the water rising approximately 53 feet while inside the lock.  It's an exciting paddling experience!
 
The trip begins at the Upper Greenway Farm ramp (near the dog park) and ends at the Chickamauga Marina.   We'll be going to Aubrey's Restaurant afterwards for anyone who wants to join us.
