A new whitewater wave is opening on the French Broad. Taylor’s Wave, built in honor of Taylor Hunt, has its official grand opening tonight, Friday, October 23, at Riverside Park in Woodfin, a short drive downriver from the River Arts District.
4:30 PM: Whitewater demonstration
5:00 PM: Official dedication
5:30 PM: Reception to follow
The wave is part of Woodfin’s Greenway + Blueway project, and the opening is a chance to celebrate with the boating community and everyone who helped build it. Parking is limited, so carpool if you can.
Who’s planning to paddle it this fall?
