Thank you for volunteering for the 8th Annual Blazing Paddles Riverfest! You will be helping Cleveland celebrate the the ongoing environmental legacy of the Cuyahoga River, a waterway whose remarkable recovery helped spark the modern environmental movement as well as the 250th birthday of our nation and the 230th birthday of Cleveland. Blazing Paddles Riverfest celebrates that legacy, bringing the Cleveland community together on the water to honor the river's transformation and champion healthy waterways for recreation and future generations.
You can reach the volunteer coordinators at kkmyers02@gmail.com or 216-496-4678.
We need your help Friday evening (7/17/26) or Saturday (7/18/26).
Note: kayak transport volunteers should be aware this is a physical job - it is important these volunteers are able-bodied and can carry 50 lbs.
As a thank you for your service, a voucher for lunch at Music Box will be provided for Saturday's volunteers. Volunteer T-shirts will be available. Times for the volunteer shifts are included in the volunteer job descriptions on this sign up page. Nautica parking is FREE Friday night and $8 Saturday. Free parking is available on Saturday on the streets surrounding the event.
Paddles up everyone, we couldn't do this without you!
