11 Days on the River is a free community rowing and paddling program on the Menomonee River, one of Milwaukee’s most underused waterways. You’ll push off from our Emmber Lane boatyard in one of our wooden rowboats, kayaks, or canoes alongside an All Hands Boatworks staff member or volunteer and explore a stretch of the river right in our own backyard. No experience needed. These are calm waters and good boats. Bring sunscreen, water, a snack, and a sense of adventure. Better yet, bring a friend.
