NW Chapter Whitewater School Jump Start (Kayak), this Wednesday, 5:30 PM till 6:15ish, Westfork Riverside Park
Our very own Jon Kennedy(aka No Quarter) will be offering an abbreviated Jump Start for those in our neck of the woods that want to be introduced to the basic concepts of strokes, boat control, and boat maneuvering before arriving at WW School.

Please post up if you plan to attend!!!!

It is on the calendar....

I'll be there, even if it's cold, in a brand new drytop! I just requested as many Wednesdays off as possible, and sure enough got scheduled to work next Wednesday. But the regular guy down there was willing to trade Tuesday for Wednesday so I'm good to go next week, too.
Yaaaaaaah!!

I'll be there and we'll continue the Jump Start. Tom said the first session went really well.

Something to consider:
1. West Fork is most certainly going to be running tomorrow. I know that sometimes boatball moved to Lee Creek... what are the chances we'll be river running instead of boat balling? Pretty good in my estimate.
2. It's going to be cold as hell tomorrow for anyone without dry gear or a wet suit/ neoprene combo.

Does anyone need some warm up layers...? We may need to pool our resources. I've an extra dry top and a farmer john.

45 degrees and rain. That's kayaking weather in AR. Just showing up counts as jump start activity. Lee creek rule is 5 ft or above. Is there a Winslow section of west fork rule we could invoke? have some loose ends on my side so I check back in to commit.

What he said.

Goal is to make a final boatball determination (based on head count of committed players, weather, water levels locally, etc. ) & post up by 4:30 pm on Wednesday as to whether game on, game off or after work river run.

So keep checking board for updates, have boat & gear packed & post up if you can make it (or if you previously committed & have to bail).

I'm still holding out for 50+ for temp south of Fayetteville.

Feel free to call or text me with any questions / concerns.
