The Flint River Flotilla returns for its 5th year as the best river party in Flint! Our theme this year is Endless Summer, so come in your best surf/paddle attire and decorate your boat to match. Bring your inner tube, paddle board, kayak, canoe, or anything that floats (plus a life jacket!) and join us on this relaxing and fun journey down the Flint River from Tenacity Brewing to the Mott Park Recreation Area. The float will take about 1.5-2 hours.

Stay for the after party at the Mott Park landing, sponsored by NAETC/Local 659 and Hurley Medical Center, featuring live music from local band Sweet Pea, Flotilla prizes, food by Bella's Concessions, an ice cream cart, photo ops, and more!

You ticket gets you access to a shuttle, courtesy of Mott Community College, from the parking area to the launch site, Flotilla entry and support along the float, access to the after-party, and an exclusive Flint River Flotilla 2019 sticker.
