Post-Paddle Sustenance – Probably Campbells Barn east of Amelia on SR 125
Liability Waiver – As always, by joining in this event you are acknowledging that you have read and agree to abide by the Tri-State Kaykers liability waiver. You can find this waiver in the Files section of the Tri-State Kayakers web site

SAFETY SIGN IN: Everyone will sign in before launching: your name, Emergency contact person and phone number. With many paddlers being 50+, I realized if someone required 911, I do not know last names or who to call. This list is kept in my dry bag during the paddle, then shredded when I get home. Hopefully we will never have to use it. :D

With all the rain, we should be able to follow the feeder creak several miles.
