Details

More details to come but general description below:l

Get ready for an adrenaline-filled day on the river! Join us for an epic whitewater rafting trip on the Kennebec River in The Forks, Maine—home to some of the best rapids in New England.

This Class III–IV river is dam-controlled, meaning consistent, splashy rapids and tons of fun all summer long! Whether you’re a first-timer or a seasoned paddler, this trip is a perfect mix of thrills, teamwork, and beautiful Maine scenery.

Trip Details:
• We’ll raft with a professional, licensed outfitter (details to come after RSVP).
• The trip includes all rafting gear (helmet, paddle, life jacket), a guided river tour, and a riverside BBQ lunch.
• Plan to be on the water for about 3–4 hours, including breaks.
• After the trip, we’ll hang out, grab food/drinks, and maybe even camp overnight if there’s interest!

What to Bring:
• Quick-drying clothes/swimwear
• Water shoes or secure sandals
• Change of dry clothes
• Towel, sunscreen, snacks
• Optional: waterproof phone case, GoPro, sense of adventure

Carpooling:
Let’s organize rides from Portland and surrounding areas

Additional information about the trip:

We are planning camping Friday the 25th and Saturday the 26th night but that is not required. The rafting bus leaves at 9am so camping is suggested to make sure you make it on time. We are looking at staying at the Northern outdoors camping site. They have bathrooms and showers to use and will cost $30 per person for the weekend.

We are planning on rafting Saturday morning at 9am and are looking at a few different groups. The price for the day of rafting, equipment, snacks, and a lunch provided once rafting is done, is $159 per person.

If you would like to only join for the camping or only join for the rafting, let myself of Steven know so we have all the right numbers for reservations.
