Shoot the Hooch – Tubing the Chattahoochee River

Join The BOC and Corre ATL Run Club for a fun morning floating down the beautiful Chattahoochee River! Whether you’re coming with friends or meeting new people, this is the perfect way to cool off, enjoy the outdoors, and build community together.

Bring your friends, family, coworkers, or anyone who’s been talking about wanting to get on the river. We’re excited to spend the morning floating, laughing, and creating new connections together.

We’ll launch from Powers Island and float approximately 2.5–3 hours to Paces Mill, taking in the scenery and enjoying a relaxing morning on the water.
