Tubes, ducks and even unicorns made their way down Roanoke River for 'Floatilla.'

A group of tubers on the New River in Pulaski County found themselves in need of rescuing over the weekend.

As summer rolls in, more people are taking inner tube trips down the river.

One of four survivors of a deadly tubing accident said by the time her family saw the dam on the Dan River, it was too late.

The search continues for the ninth and final missing tuber, 35-year-old Teresa Villano.

New this summer, the county is offering night tubing.

HOT SPRINGS, Va. – Grab your winter gear and get ready to hit the slopes at night. The Omni Homestead is keeping its tubing park open until after dark for Tubing, Brews and BBQ. The resort announced that every Saturday until the end of February, they’ll turn on the lights and the tubing slopes will stay open until 6:30 p.m.Staff said they tried this out earlier this month and it was a huge hit with guests. “Guests who have come for tubing in the past it’s always been during the daylight hours and now with the evening hours we’re able to turn the lights on, it’s a little bit different experience, a little bit more fun and just really kind of a great way to end the day,” said Lynn Swann from Omni Homestead. After the slopes close, you can head inside to Kobers at the Mountain Lodge for BBQ and regional brews until 7:30 p.m.
