Re: Sunday Feb 14th paddling

I did swing by, later in the afternoon, and saw two other kayakers getting off to a late start. Sorry we missed you, but glad you had a good time.

Re: Roll Help Needed

I'm guessing the best bet is if each of them learns how to roll solo first. And yes, we're having good turn outs now, I'm sure someone will be here to help.

RIP Hal Smith

I know not everyone is on Facebook, so some of you may not have heard: We lost another good man yesterday. I don't know the details, but Hal was out hiking waterfalls with friends when he slipped and fell 60 feet. He will be sorely missed. My condolences to Cheyenne and the others closest to him. Co...

UALR Pool - 1/20/2016 YES, 1/23/2016 NO

Aly is still awaiting a final confirmation, but from an earlier inquiry this is what we understood to be this week's schedule. Time: 6 to 8 Check for updates tomorrow in case I have it wrong on the times... or be there a few minutes before 6, and then you'll still have at an hour even if it did star...

Re: UALR pool: Good tonight

I was just about to post for Aly, her contact said six to eight tonight. Best bet is, if you come at 6, be on time just in case you only have 1 hour.

Re: Cadron Temperatures

The USGS gauge on Cadron Creek doesn't include a temperature reading, but looking at two other Central Arkansas creeks that do, I see temperatures ranging from 40 degrees up to 50 degrees in just the last few days. If you want a rough average on any given day, add the nightime low to yesterday's day...

Re: Happy New Year Red Hot Cider Float

Yes Jim, I also have discovered that sometimes the best camo is the one that hides you in plain sight. When I want to hide or remain unseen in town, I drive my white Toyota Corolla, which looks like an airport rental car that got let go in an auction, with a little unrepaired body damage. NOBODY eve...

Re: A note about Facebook - check there too!

Thanks for checking Dave. I know some people don't want to be on Facebook, but, the problem is that many people are moving their on-line presence there, and as they do that, some of them have stopped posting here because they like that platform better. I think there are lots of people who don't have...

Re: Sunday 11/22/15, Cadron pickup and paddle

OK, I'm going to be lazy and repeat some of what I've already said on FB, for those who aren't on FB: "Today, about 15 (???) folks showed up early enough to help with cleaning the ACC's adopted mile of Highway 65. Thirteen (13) bags of trash and one tire collected from the highway, another bag,...
