CityParks Concerts - Naughty By Nature
Tuesday, July 22, 2008
From 7:00 PM to 9:00 PM
Queensbridge Park
Naughty By Nature electrified mainstream radio with their street-wise but contagious anthem, “OPP,” which is one of the most successful rap songs in music history. The phenomenal success of “Hip Hop Hooray” firmly cemented NBN’s place in hip hop legend. Their third album Poverty’s Paradise included “Uptown Anthem,” featured in the film, Juice.

Walk-up Kayaking.
This is our original and most popular program. The only requirement is that you know how to swim. It runs at all of our locations on weekends and holidays through October 19th, and on many weekday evenings. You can take one of our kayaks out for a short 20-minute paddle inside the protected embayment in front of the boathouse. They give you a life jacket, a kayak, a paddle, and some tips on paddling. You will need to stay inside our protected embayment where we can keep an eye on you, but otherwise you are on your own to enjoy the river and the sunshine.
Bring a bathing suit, or shorts and a T-Shirt. There are changing rooms, and a hose to rinse off. For details, log onto: www.downtownboathouse.org/programs.html
