Our members have asked that when you send me your write-up for the paddle that you
please when possible include as many of the following items as you know.
:Is there a parking or launch fee if so how much or about how much.
:Are there toilets at the launch or take-out or do they need to seek facilities before arriving
at the launch area.
:Please rate your paddle as Hard - Medium - or Easy
:Is the paddle downstream - upstream - both.
:Is there a shuttle.
:Some members would like the option of going out to eat after a paddle.
This is always optional and the tc is not obligated to choose the place and does not have
to participate. Just mention the option so members may plan to bring money to pay for
the meal. Members who wish to eat can decide where, on or after the paddle.
NEXT PADDLE:
Hopefully everyone had a wonderful Christmas, and are thawing out now. We will
have our Aquaholics club picnic this Saturday Dec.31 (New Years Eve) at Rio Vista
Park on the rainbow River (directions on our website). The weather is forecast to
be much warmer by then.
Mary Ann will have the gate open before 8:30 am, and we will start paddling by
9 am, then return to eat by noon. The club will furnish a ham; plates; utensils; iced
tea (or BYOB), so please call or text Terry Sechler at 503-510-8045 to give her a
head count, and let her know what side dish you can bring (such as dessert; baked
beans; potato salad, etc.).
Also, we will have our annual club officer elections, and memberships are up for
renewal every January 1 (a few new members who joined late in the year will
automatically be renewed for 2023). Same dues: $10 single/$15 family. The email
list will be updated on March 31 to reflect those who have renewed. Please
download & print membership forms (from website), as we may not have enough
available at the picnic.
FUTURE PADDLES:
If you wish to go on any of these paddles, please remember to call the trip
coordinator to let them know you plan on going. Make sure you leave your
name and phone number. If there is a need to call you, the TC will be able to
reach you.
