🌊 Paddle Skills Day! 🛶
5th graders from Calvert City Elementary made a splash today at the Calvert City Golf & Country Club pool! In partnership with the TN RiverLine, students learned how to kayak, discovered fun facts about the 652-mile Tennessee River, and practiced water safety.
For nearly half of the kids, it was their first time in a kayak — and their excitement was contagious! #tnriver #tnriverline #652
