Need safety kayakers for Great River Race

Post by pat »

Hi folks,

We need a few kayakers for NSRWA's Great River Race on Saturday, July 30. This is an event that we help with every year. There are a few people who I generally count on, but I don't want to make any assumptions. I know that Ron and Chip are in. Jordan is always an automatic for this, but he's sidelined for the season, and we'll miss him.

Hi Pat,

I would love to help out with this, but I have already been warned by work that I need to be
available to work the whole weekend, if they need me.

6 people would be optimal so we can pair up. You get a t-shirt and lunch. How can you beat that?

I will help. Please send me the necessary time and location and shuttling details some time or tell me next Thursday night after Hanson so I can write things down. I have never attended this race before.

Pat,

After checking the family plans for next weekend, it looks like I will be able to help out with the safety. I have done it a couple of times, and it is always fun! So please add me to your list if you are still looking for people!

Thanks, Norm and Bea.

We can use 1-3 more people. There are four locations on the route that we like to position people. We need two at the finish line and two sweeping. We have people located at two spots in between, and they can each do it alone, but it's nice to have company.

Anyone planning a car pool? I will be racing but could use help moving the car. I can fit one extra boat on my roof rack so could move my car to the finish and bring an extra boat back to the start.

See you there.

Cheers,

Bev.
