The historic steamboat Belle of Louisville will be going through McAlpine Lock a second time this fall; so if you missed the one in September, it's not too late to experience this unique cruise! Going through a river lock on a steamboat is memorable, and there will be a narrator on board to explain lock operation. A live bluegrass band will also provide musical entertainment, so it will be a fun and full afternoon. You can choose to include the buffet lunch (depending on available space and advance reservations are required) or come on board for sightseeing only. Please note that return times are not guaranteed, and river conditions will dictate where we go on this cruise. Call for information and to make a reservation. On-line reservations are now available.
SATURDAY, OCTOBER 20; 10AM - 5 PM
SUNDAY, OCTOBER 21; NOON - 5 PM
