Riversport Slalom August 16-17

Post by old and in the way »

Please join us for the annual Riversport Slalom (Penn Cup #2) to be held at Ramcat Rapid (Paddler's Lane Camp) on the Middle Yough on August 16-17.

Details and entry forms can be found at http://www.riversportslalom.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

We are in need of volunteers to act as safety boats and to control rec traffic. This is a great opportunity for students (experienced boaters) in need of community service hours, or for anyone to just grab hold of some good river karma.

Mods - can we get a sticky please?

ohioboater - come play at Paddler's Lane! That place hasn't seen a real party since Davey sneaked the Soviet team out of the Frostburg dorms in 89

Kaz - we would dance a jig if you can make it.

How about we shoot for getting C boats to outnumber kayaks?

Very glad to hear of so many that are going to be there - just a friendly note that Friday before is course construction day, where we blow through about a mile of wire over 8-9 hours of work. It is always great to have lots of hands that day.

Thanks!
