The Gowanus Dredgers Canoe Club, a volunteer organization that is dedicated to providing waterfront access and education to the public, is holding a Gowanus Canal fundraiser party on Thursday, October 27:

"Please come help us celebrate the end of our sixth season and the beginning of our boathouse fundraising. There will be delicious food from Schnack, fabulous live music from Hank Plank and the 2 by 4s!!, comic entertainment by Billy Bones the Friendly Pirate, moonlight canoeing, lots of wonderful raffle prizes and exquisite art from Brooklyn artists in the silent auction. All this takes place at the end of 2nd Street and the Gowanus Canal (aka The Jewel of Brooklyn)."

Remember: You'll never tour a more grateful urban canal than the Gowanus Canal. During the past season, there were more than 2,000 trips made down the Gowanus Canal, a sign that more New Yorkers than ever before are taking urban renewal seriously.
