Young Adult Whitewater Rafting Trip

This is a chance to connect with other Young Adults in the Rogue Valley. Sometimes after graduating high school and/or college, it can be hard to find community and relationships. This is a fun and laid back way to intentionally build community.

Who: Young Adults (roughly 18-30 yrs old)... feel free to bring a wingman

What: a 2.5-3 hr whitewater rafting trip starting near Gold Hill. Orange Torpedo will be providing the guides. There will be class II's, III's, and even a couple Class IV's. While the rapids will be a bit more exciting, the rafts are quite large, and people who are less comfortable with rapids, can sit in the stable center of the raft. As long as you feel comfortable swimming, this trip is safe. Beginners welcome! If you want to find out more about this trip, check out their website here.

This is rain or shine (: We will of course change plans if there is a chance of lightning.

When: Sat. Aug. 5th from 1:15 - 5:00p
1:15 - Meet at Westminster Church to carpool
1:50 - Arrive at Gold Hill Sports Complex to meet Orange Torpedo
4:30 - Leave from Gold Hill Sports Complex
5:00 - Arrive at Westminster

Where: meet at Westminster Church, so that we can have a place to park where we won't get our cars towed (:

Why: The Surgeon General recently released a report saying that there is something of an "isolation" endemic. Isolation is known to have harmful physical and mental effects. Here is one way we hope to help re-build community after the pandemic together, for the good of our Medford community (: Plus, rafting is a good time.

What to bring: water shoes (e.g. crocks, chacos, etc) , sunscreen, sunglasses/hat, WATER, and a water shirt (aka - the water is cold, so some people like to wear something that dries fast and helps keep warm)

Cost: $35/person
WPC is subsidizing over half the cost, in order to help build community in a time where community can be hard to find. Please hand off your payment (cash preferable) to Dereck Sun. Aug. 31st at 1:15.
