This guided canoe trip offers a rare opportunity to experience the breathtaking beauty of these iconic flowers in their natural habitat. \nThe Cahaba lily trip is one of our more physically demanding excursions\, requiring participants to drag their boats across Caffee Shoals on the return trip to the boat launch. As you step out to pull your canoe\, keep in mind that the rocks can be extremely slippery\, so caution is essential. This is why closed-toe shoes are required for all participants. \nDespite the challenge\, the reward is well worth the effort. The sight of the Cahaba lilies in full bloom is truly unforgettable. These resilient flowers are uniquely adapted to life in swift-moving water. Unlike their close relative\, the swamp lily\, which grows in marshes where its seeds can float\, the Cahaba lily’s seeds sink and settle among the foliated rocks of the limestone shoals\, ensuring their survival in the dynamic currents of the Cahaba River. \nWe encourage participants to bring cameras to capture the beauty of the lilies\, but please remember that we will be in the water\, so plan accordingly to protect your gear. This is an experience you won’t want to miss. \n  \nWhat to Expect on Your Guided Canoe Trip\nJoin us for a guided canoe trip through the stunning Cahaba River National Wildlife Refuge\, where you’ll experience the beauty of Alabama’s longest free-flowing river and its famous Cahaba lilies. \nMeeting & Departure \n\nOur group will meet at 8:15 AM at Amped Fitness (3427 Colonnade Pkwy\, Birmingham\, AL 35243) to caravan to the Cahaba River National Wildlife Refuge.\nWe will depart promptly at 8:30 AM. You’re welcome to join the caravan or travel to the refuge on your own.\nIf you’ll be meeting us at the Cahaba Wildlife Refuge\, plan to meet at Canoe Beach by 10:00 AM.\nBe advised that there is limited cell service in the Refuge\, so plan your trip ahead of time.\nPlease notify Wil Rainer at wilr@cahabariversociety.org of your travel plans.\n\nThe Canoe Trip Experience \nThis guided paddle follows a down-and-back route\, made easier by the river’s unique geology. As we navigate the Cahaba: \n\nYou’ll witness the contrast between limestone shoals\, where the Cahaba lilies thrive\, and deep sandstone pools with slower-moving water\, allowing us to paddle back upstream\, returning to our starting point.\nUpon arrival at Hargrove Shoals\, we’ll enjoy a scenic lunch among the lilies (please bring your own brown bag lunch).\n\nImportant Notes \n\nWeather & Water Conditions: Guided trips are subject to weather and river conditions. If there are any changes or cancellations\, we will notify all participants. Due to the brief nature of the lilies’ blooming season\, it is unlikely that a trip will be rescheduled.\n\n  \nWhat to Bring\n\nWater (at least 1 liter)\nLunch\nSunscreen\nSun hat\nClose-toed water shoes. Sandals and flip-flops are not protective enough when walking through the shoals. This site shows some of the shoes our team might be wearing. Old tennis shoes also work well.\nPhotography equipment (waterproof bags are recommended for any technology)\n\nYou are welcome to bring a cooler for your water and lunch\, but alcohol is prohibited. \n  \nRegistration:\nTRIP IS CURRENTLY FULL Email our Field Programs Director\, Wil Rainer to get added to the waitlist URL:https://bhamnow.com/bhamn-event/cahaba-lily-canoe-trip-cahaba-river-national-wildlife-refuge-may-11-2025/ LOCATION:Cahaba National Widlife Refuge\, River Trace\, West Blocton\, AL\, 35184\, United States CATEGORIES:Events,Fun,Guided Canoe Trip GEO:33.0888268;-87.0626986 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Cahaba National Widlife Refuge River Trace West Blocton AL 35184 United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=River Trace:geo:-87.0626986,33.0888268 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Chicago:20250511T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/Chicago:20250511T163000 DTSTAMP:20260506T105338 CREATED:20250313T000003Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250511T042503Z UID:10078923-1746968400-1746981000@bhamnow.com SUMMARY:Annual Rose Show DESCRIPTION:#image-595 + picture img {\n –focal-point: 50% 50%;\n } \n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n \n | \n \n \n\n\n\n\nThe Birmingham Rose Society proudly presents its annual Rose Show on Mother’s Day weekend at the beautiful Birmingham Botanical Gardens.  \nThis show is one of the largest horticultural shows in the southeast typically showcasing 400 roses on display along with beautiful artistic arrangements and stunning photography featuring the Rose!

What began as a desire to escape the grind of the music industry evolved into a passion for bringing people together through the power of drumming. \n“I wanted the focus to be on empowerment\, inclusion\, motivation\, and inspiration through rhythm\,” he explained. And that’s exactly what the Community Drum Jam at City Walk BHAM has become—a place where rhythm serves as a universal language that transcends barriers. \nA Jam for Everyone \nThe Community Drum Jam (CDJ) is exactly what the name suggests—a communal\, interactive drumming experience open to all. It’s not a performance or a class\, but a shared moment where people from every background\, age group\, and ability level gather to connect on a basic human level through rhythm. \n“Rhythm is a UNIVERSAL language\,” he emphasizes. “Once you know where the ‘pulse’ is\, you can interact with it and the other people in the circle.” \nFrom gently guiding participants to shifting grooves to keep things fresh\, the facilitator works behind the scenes to ensure each session flows smoothly—even though it may “look” easy. \nRooted in Birmingham \nAlthough John has led drumming events around the city for over 20 years\, the Community Drum Jam at City Walk BHAM has been thriving for the past two. Originally attempted as a year-round event\, the jam now takes place seasonally—spring through fall—with a particularly magical December session held beside the Christmas tree. \nNo Experience Necessary \nWhether you’ve never touched a drum or you’ve been playing for years\, all are welcome to join. The sessions are entirely free\, and John brings at least 20 drums for anyone to try out. People are encouraged to bring their own instruments if they have them\, but it’s not a requirement. \nSpecial attention is given to young children\, who are invited to explore softer instruments in the center of the circle with the support of a parent. It’s a safe\, joyful space to simply “hit things” and begin developing a love for rhythm. \nA Creative\, Healing Space \nMore than just music\, the drum jam is a form of expression and even healing for many. Participants include dancers\, hoopers\, painters\, writers\, and more—all drawn to the rhythm in their own unique way. \n“People come for different reasons\,” the facilitator shares. “For many\, this is a healing experience—a release of emotion\, a chance to connect and be accepted.” \nWhether someone is battling illness\, navigating personal struggles\, or just looking for a creative outlet\, the drum circle offers support\, connection\, and joy.
