C-Forum

As you might have guessed from the title, this year's North Branch Armada will be on the North Branch of the Potomac as usual, this year May 31st and June 1.

Tentative schedule as follows:
Friday: Cquirts meet up (at PS Composites?), then wander off for lunch, perhaps Jim Snyder's if he is kind enough to let us drop in again, and then off for a Cquirt session wherever is in....

Friday night - Camping as usual at Jennings Randolph non-hookup sites. Recommend folks consider sharing sites to keep costs down (2 cars per site as i recall).

Saturday - meet at 10:00 at the brick pump house to set shuttle. Attempt to be on the water by 11;)

Saturday evening - Fox's Pizza:)

Sunday - paddling wherever.


Details will be firmed up when we get closer.

Please post if you think you can make it, and if you'd be interested in purchasing an Armada-specific C-t-shirt

I reserved site #77. I'll get there sometime on Thursday evening. To reserve a site go to: http://www.recreation.gov/campsitePagin ... tartIdx=50
The odd numbered sites, 71 through 89, plus 88 & 90 are non-electric & $4 cheaper. The site map is here:

I'll buy an XL shirt.

If the site ever finishes loading SBroam and I will be at Site 79

I have #75 reserved w/ Big Al.

Updates made to Calendar as to both the Armada and C-quirt!

Almost forgot - T-shirt 1 Large please? Will they be a tye dye retro or does the wifey have a secert plan for the design? Oh - how about Cquirt will that be on it? Or will that be a seperate shirt?

I'm in.

And please save me an x-l T.

I can bring my Zoom, C-U Fly, and "PAC'd" 4-Play.

Us Canadians (well, not sure who will join) will be on site #73. I just reserved that site.

Adam, I would like to order a T-shirt as well, size L please.

I could bring some of the following boats:

Drakkar Wheelboy
Galasport Loco
New Wave Acrobat
Noah America C2
Pyranha Prelude
Robson Finkenmeister
Shaggy Sith
Shaggy Pagan

If anyone is interested in trying out a particular one, let me know, and I'll make sure that it'll wind its way onto the truck.

I'll have a bunch of Cquirts (Maven, Mentor, and perhaps Oxygen and Acrobat), as well as my Sith:).

I can bring a few other boats, if there is interest in anything in particular.

FWIW I'm hoping to have a late summer / early fall (Labor day weekend?) get together to boat the Hudson Gorge as well as mess around in "vintage" CBoats. I'll post more as we get closer, if anyone PMs me with interest.

Will be attending not sure about dates etc. Sharing electric site back in the back w/JNorton to recharge batteries


Put me down for an XL tshirt

Oh yeah, I'm on this like a spider monkey. Will probably be bringing the Loco, we need more of a slalom presence.

Hi all,

I'm relatively new to this board and this potomac trip sounds excellent. My usual paddling crowd is all kayakers, so I'll probably be all by my lonesome- does anyone want to share a campsite with a newbie? And I usually paddle class II-III in an OC1 (dagger prophet)- is that ok?

driving from Baltimore, too, and open to carpooling.

Be there.
Will bring:

Frachella Viper
Atom

Can bring:

Patriot C2
Berry C2

Will have access to:

John Deer Slalom C1 ( close relative to an Extrabat Paul C)
multiple Gyro Max's
the ArgueMax C2
Pyrahna S8 C1

Would like to try:

Mentor
zephyr
short OC's like skeeter (can't remember names)

till next

Jim

You shouldn't have any problem finding a site to camp on, but to be safe you probably ought to reserve one - then of course, you wouldn't have any problem finding someone to share with you.

The "NBP" is a class II with one II/III near the end - it's a friendly river and there will be lots of folks around.

Come on out!

Adam I will be there and would like an XL T shirt plz.
