And other 'budget-minded' youth groups attempt to
prepay for maximum discount. Work exchange programs are available to interested groups - equipment use exchanged for helping with litter, clean-up operations, etc. Too, any and all canoeing coupons will be cheerfully honored; only one discount permitted per canoe. ALL CANOE RENTAL COUPONS HONORED!
SAVE-TRANSPORT YOURSELF
Whenever possible simply avoid using the shuttle-bus by either dropping
off most of your group at the access prior to an Upper River trip or by picking
up the group after a Lower River trip. We will pickup and deliver canoes
and equipment; if need be the drivers in the group can ride the shuttle-bus
(A rate). All persons not using the shuttle-bus will qualify for an
additional discount. Call for details. Scout, school, church and other 'budget-minded' groups should consider
the 'Transport Yourself' option. Of course, full shuttle service is
available to groups and individuals preffering to use it.
Of course full shuttle service is available to groups and individuals referring to use the shuttle-bus.
NOTE: Group Leaders
When planning river trips involving youth, make certain that
everyone involved, including all parents, understand that no life guards are stationed along these
self-guided routes. Also make certain that the group has enough adult leadership and supervision
for existing river conditions.
River trips and associated activities should not be equated with an
amusement park experience. An ideal river trip should be very relaxing without strict
schedules; try not to plan or
crowd too many additional activities into your groups agenda. It is important to have a
well rested group that can focus their energies and attentions to the planned trip as well as the existing river conditions. Study weather forecasts closely relative to your
plans; we can update you as to water levels and river speeds.
The experienced adult (s) in the lead canoe (s) should be able to recognize obstacles in river currents
such as fallen trees, limbs,
large rocks, etc. that must be avoided by the group; these obstacles can be extremely hazardous. The
adult (s) in the trail canoe (s) must make certain that no members of the group
stray outside of the group formation. Many group leaders carry cellular telephones in plastic
(tupperware) containers on their river trips.
If your group is camped and severe weather and/or flooding occurs, we can assist leaders with alternate activities
in the area.
Advance Deposit
All deposits refunded in the event of severe weather.
Cancellations not related to adverse weather receive a credit for future
trip.
