We need plenty of advance notice and plenty of careful planning to make things go smoothly.  Each group is different,  each day is different.  Call,  and we can discuss your  needs  

 

 

 

                 Schools and Daycamps-  The Nissequogue River is a great place to bring your School class, Daycamp or other Youth Group on a canoe or kayak field trip. Careful planning is a must.  Wind and tide,  safety procedures,  sweep boats, group organization- all must be discussed. Call Bob's Canoe Rental, Inc.  for individual attention to your field trip
