Whitewater Rafting Event - Troop 26

Jun 9 (Fri) to Jun 11 (Sun)
This whitewater rafting event is like no other! Be prepared to get wet! The weekend is set up for scouts - they have music, exhibits, information and its a real nice atmosphere. Saturday around 9am we will embark on our 6 hour trip - returning around 3pm for hot showers and snacks. We will probably leave Sunday morning around 11am getting home around 2pm Sunday afternoon. We always have a great time on this event - families welcome! (age 10+ for whitewater)

Schedule: Monies must be received by TBD (if you want to go...) Checks to "Troop 26 BSA" or cash in US Currency only please!
Other Info: You probably want to shower after the trip - nice free hot showers available. - Based on past experience, do NOT take anything that will break if it gets wet like a car door remote opener which costs about $35 to replace (voice of experience here). Prepare to get soaked. - Depending on how cold it is, you may want to rent booties and/or vests, gloves. The booties and gloves are nice but I've found the vest is nice for the first 1/2 hour or so, then its too hot even on cooler days. I forget the prices, but this may be advisable. Also that vest always seems tight around the waist... hmmmm.
