Tim... If you are on Facebook, check out the Arkansas Whitewater Coalition page. Many trips are planned there. People are definitely floating this weekend.

A whole slew of folks are meeting at 10am at the Longpool campground to do the Piney on Saturday.

It's somewhat ironic that "social" media actually performs an exclusionary function for those who don't embrace it.

Same way that message boards don't work for people without access and phone trees don't work for people who dislike talking on the phone.

The ACC message board used to be the standard resource for publicizing paddling trips before the widespread popularity of privacy-invading and data-rich social media. Many of those who avoid social media are not Luddites, they're just not of the herd mentality.
