Join us for a guided paddle at a Curran Reservoir!  We’ll launch from 5 Waterview Drive in Smithfield (Wolf Hill Forest Preserve in google maps) where we have our Leo Bouchard Conservation Center. Come see our newly renovated education center situated in an idyllic spot by the Curran Reservoir and next to an extensive network of trails in Wolf Hill Preserve. We’ll look for cool birds and turtles and enjoy all the natural wonders of this clean and protected part of the Woonasquatucket River!
