I will handle Sunday permits. As of now, only Stephanie, Terry and myself are committed. I will attempt to secure them on Friday. If I have not heard from you by 10am, you will not be included.

A few more pictures from last weekends trip to the Lower Yough (Ohiopyle).

Doesn't this look like great fun! :D Don't worry, we didn't use it all up last weekend.
There'll be plenty left for the Summer Gathering. :twisted:
It would be a shame for you to miss it. :wink:

Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out and loudly proclaiming....WOW What a ride! . . . . .

KessmanN,

I note that there is a " 8) " for Jackie but not a " :evil: " for you.

You're going to have to step it up.

Just wanted to update the list. We have 21 people signed up so far.
Plenty of room left for you to join us. :D

By my count, we have 4 First Timers, 3 Couple of Timers and the rest have had many trips on the LY.
We have plenty of space for more First Timers or Sophomores (trying to sound hip for the younger paddlers).
So, if your on the fence because you're not sure there are enough safety boaters, we have you covered.
We'd also love to have the younger paddlers along, if you think your ready for the Class III action of the
Lower Yough, here is your chance to "lace it up", with plenty of experienced paddlers to show you the lines. :twisted:

Also, Bryan, what's your last name? I think I got George right.

Paddler
1 Raymond Williams
2 Sejal Kinker
3 Dennis Barnes
4 Liz Bradford
5 Dave Bradford
6 Terry Robinson-Kochi
7 Bryan ???
8) Jackie Rosser (Change Authorized by Jackie's Agent) :wink:
9 Pat Macpherson
10 Barb Franko
11 Lee Keller
12 John C. Deddens
13 Jeff Johnson
14 Tom Shen
15 Tom Wood
16 George Bowles
17 Stephanie Bertram

20 Mark Pizzini
21 Mark Maple
