Outdoor Chattanooga and the Department of Parks and Recreation announces outdoor events coming this week.
* Paddleboard Demo: Come to Outdoor Chattanooga in Coolidge Park on Thursday at 6 p.m. and learn about the newest trend in paddling: standup paddleboards.
The guys at SUP Paddleboards will give a free general introduction to paddle boarding inside Outdoor Chattanooga, then take interested participants down to the river to try some “supping.” Demos will be subject to current in the Tennessee River. The demos are open to adults and youth ages 14 and older accompanied by an adult.
For more information, call 643-6888.
* Battlefield Bicycle Ride: Outdoor Chattanooga and Chickamauga and Chattanooga National Military Park will host free, guided bicycle tours of Chickamauga Battlefield the third Saturday of each month, beginning May 15. The rides will begin at 9:30 a.m. from the Visitors Center.
