Planning for the Paddle Pickup 2012 - 8th Annual

It’s time to plan the 2012 PPU. What weekend should we choose, what section should we clean?

Jennifer is going to be looking into an expansion to the event this year. Camping the Friday night before on Spalding Hall lawn. The cyclists do it for the My Old Kentucky Home bike ride, so we might be able to as well. This would be to raise awareness of the club, the dirty rivers, and the clean-up. We would pitch tents on the lawn, maybe have some music and food. Have a bunch of boats on display too. Boy scouts could join us as well.

If we did this, would many of you would camp?

So what date, what section and will you camp? Click on comments above and leave them there.

We could write at least 100 good reasons to be an American Whitewater member, but sometimes the best way to say it is with video. Check out the piece we put together below. It lays out some of our most recent successes and why all paddlers should be AW members. We hope it’ll encourage non-members to join. If you’re already a member, please share it with others, thanks!
