Excelling at watersports, like aging gracefully or enjoying dried fruit, requires acceptance of pruney fingers. Outfit yourself for aqua play with today’s Groupon to Tarka’s Whitewater Journey in Marinette. Choose between the following options:
- For $20, you get a half-day of whitewater rafting on the Menominee River for a youth between 7–17 years old (up to a $40.99 value).
- For $22, you get a half-day of whitewater rafting on the Menominee River for an adult (up to a $45.99 value).
Daily trips start at 10:30 am and 2:30 pm, setting sail from the Upper Peninsula of Niagara.
Tarka Kumal, a member of Nepal’s freestyle kayaking team at the 2001 world championships, deftly leads flocks of self-bailing rubber boats through the rapids of the Menominee River, one of the Midwest’s liveliest waterways. During the 3- to 3.5-hour journey, rafters of all experience levels dart past 200-foot cliffs to the swirling Sand Portage Rapids before finally making their way to Piers Gorge where they'll plunge down a 10-foot waterfall as gracefully as a swan descends down a mall escalator. Experienced guides—who hold certification in river rescue, CPR, and wilderness first aid—pilot each boat of six to eight voyagers as they traverse rapids that range from Class I to Class IV.

The Groupon Guide to: Urban Murals
Urban murals are the best art because they're the biggest art. Here are some of the most inspiring scenes that can be found in every urban mural:
• Children with huge smiles full of music notes instead of teeth
• Citizens of all races holding hands in a chain to block a bulldozer that is approaching a hospital
• A crack in the sidewalk—inside it, there's a family having dinner
• Two old women playing chess for once
• All of the city's past mayors lifting a school bus full of sick zoo animals
• Roses sprouting out of guns, being watered by a blind man with a baby on his shoulders
