Donut Boating Social on Tempe Town Lake

June 04, 2023

08:45 AM - 11:00 AM MST

Phoenix Platoon

Event overview

Join your fellow platoon members for free donut boating and light breakfast at Tempe Town Lake. We will meet on the east side of the Tempe Beach Park parking lot. NOTE: 72 W. Rio Salado is Tempe Boat Rental; 250 W. Rio Salado Parkway is the Tempe Beach Park Surface Parking Lot.

From 0845-0945, we will have a light breakfast (muffins, bagels, fruit)

At 0945, we will transition to the boat house, where we will cruise around Tempe Town Lake from 1000-1100, getting to know one another, basking in the beautiful Arizona weather, and marveling at the Tempe skyline.

The Donut Boats hold up to 10 people. A round table in the middle is great for sharing food and beverages, and the circular seating makes for easy conversations. The boats are covered to protect against the sun. We will be on the water for one hour. Please, no children under the age of 12.

No pets please. Boats have a Bluetooth speaker. There is no swimming, no alcohol, no BBQs.

The platoon will provide light snacks, water, and sunscreen. Please bring any additional sun protection items you desire.

We are limited to 20 total slots.

Boats do have life vests, but anyone over 14 is not required to wear one.

The boat house has water, soda, candy, and snacks for sale.

While the parking lot and park are handicap accessible, the boats are not equipped to handle wheelchairs. Boarding the boat requires stepping off the concrete "docK' onto the boat.
