Canoeing along the river ways with NWIPA & Wilderness Inquiry

access canoe and Kayak launch by all

It is through a strong commitment to creating partnerships that we are able to work in bringing accessibility to all.  In the fall of 2015, Michigan City installed the first ADA canoe kayak launch in Northwest Indiana.  We wanted to make sure that the City of Gary would not be too far behind, together with NWIPA we worked tirelessly to make this happen.  With the support of the Legacy Foundation, local organizations and individuals this will become a reality at the start of Summer 2016, an accessible canoe/kayak launch will be installed in Marquette Park Lagoon.People of all abilities, including wheelchair users, will be able to visit Marquette Park and experience the river ways.
