Starting September 13, 2025, that connection takes on a new rhythm as the HWY 331 Paddle Club makes its debut.
Every Saturday at 9 AM, locals and visitors will gather behind the historic Chautauqua Hall of Brotherhood for a community paddle on the lake, followed by a walk (or a jog, if that’s your pace) along the mile-long paved path that circles this Walton County gem.
The club is free, open to all skill levels, and simply asks participants to register so organizers know how many new friends to expect. Bring your water vessel, walking shoes, dog – come solo or bring a friend!
This isn’t just about one morning on the water. The Paddle Club is the first chapter in what we’re calling Circle Back to DeFuniak — a campaign to celebrate all the reasons people circle back to our historic town and beloved lake.
