Ossining Overnight Oasis for 100 Mile Paddlers

Ossining will serve an overnight oasis to the inspiring men and women who will paddle 100 miles down the Hudson River over two days to raise funds for clean water initiatives and autism charities.

The 100 Mile Paddle will start at the Hudson River Maritime Museum in Kingston on July 19. Participants will paddle down the Hudson River for 60 miles past Croton-on-Hudson before stopping in Ossining to rest until morning.

Day two takes paddlers by Nyack under the Tappan Zee Bridge passing through Tarrytown, Irvington, Dobbs Ferry and Hastings-on-Hudson—before veering left into the Harlem and East Rivers to the bottom of Manhattan and back into the Hudson River. The 40-mile paddle finishes off at the Intrepid Air and Sea Museum.
