Paddle & Groove
Paddle & Groove Concert Series on the Maumee River
KeyBank National Association Trustee for the Walter E. Terhune Memorial Fund and Black Swamp Conservancy have a great way for you to enjoy a summer evening in Toledo!
Join us in June, July, and August as we board a band onto a pontoon boat and take off down the river.
Paddle along and enjoy live music on the open water by renting a kayak from Maumee Tackle Fishing & Kayaking Outfitters for $45 or bringing your own boat (kayak or canoe only) for $15. Children under 18 must be in a tandem kayak or canoe with an adult.
The events will take place from 6:00 – 7:30 pm. Come early to unload and launch your boat or to get your kayak rental ready.

Djangophonique
August 5
An award winning project that delivers the infectious joy, and expressive freedom that is at the heart of Django Reinhardt’s jazz manouche. The result is a sound that’s unmistakable to fans of the music, and alluring to the uninitiated. It is a sound that can bring the lively energy of a Parisian dance hall to the quietest listening room or captivate a buzzing festival audience with the aching nostalgia of a shimmering ballad.
