There are so many holiday events these days, that it's nearly impossible (and expensive!) to…
Once everyone was on the water, about 75 people with 56 kayaks, canoes and standup boards joined the park naturalist for a night paddle around Devil’s Lake.
The annual Full Moon paddle is a free event put on by the Devil’s Lake State Park nature center each year. Participants are invited to be as creative as they like when they light up their boats. If anyone doesn’t have their own lighting, glowsticks are provided as well.
The video below can’t even begin to share the experience of paddling Devil’s Lake at night and watching the full moon coming up around the East Bluff, but still, you’ll get a feel for the experience. And yes, nearly all of the lights you see out there are boats!
Keep an eye out for next year’s event. The date changes each year of course because the naturalist is looking for a full moon, near a weekend and not until the water is nice and warm!

For nearly 2 decades the Skillet Creek blog has focused on 3 main goals; To inspire you to visit and explore the Devil’s Lake region, to help you get the most your visit by sharing tips, events, and other helpful information. Lastly to advocate for our environment & wildlife and talk about how we can keep our natural areas amazing now and into the future! That last goal can sometimes cause controversy, but it’s the only way we can accomplish the first two. – Derrick Mayoleth, Owner.
