This has been one heck of of a hetic week for me! And it isn't over yet.. Still work to be done.
I may have another camp site open... will need some work

[bryanpin]

so what time is this get down getting down. i'm planning on heading that way by noon or so saturday. will i be in time??

There is a earlier post were Jeremy stated between 1 and 2..

[Jeremy M]

As long as you're there by 1 or 2, you should be good to go..Can't wait to see everyone!

[Heath]

Heath, you can borrow my Aftershock.

that should be entertaining:) sounds good.

Okay, so here's the final breakdown on how I'm thinking this will work out....

Depending on how many kayakers/open boaters, etc...we have, we can break folks down into categories. Juniors, womens, mens, kayak, canoe, c1, etc... Each run will last for 2 minutes and 30 seconds and the clock will start when you drop into the first hole....For every 15 seconds over the time-limit, you will be assessed a 20 point penalty (thats the same score a loop will receive). Each person gets to make 2 runs and we'll take the best score...no semi-finals, finals, etc...

On prizes....I have a finite number of goodies to give away for each of the 4 Throwdown events...all participant names will be put into a hat and drawn out...door prize style. The points are for bragging rights only! and the prizes are to award participation...make sense?

Now....back to your regularly scheduled programming. Ooh a butterfly!

I working on my routine and wondering if a window shade is a trick and if so ,how many points is it worth?

[Jeremy M]

window shades and carnage will fall under the variety judges call and will be scored based on severity....

I am watching video so I can be sure of the moves that the boaters do while paddling on Sat.. I will give extra points to newbies who do cool tricks even if you didn't mean to. Just roll up and smile and that counts. Hope to see everyone this weekend. Just no loudness around my camp Jason is old and grumpy.

Capn Tom<keep paddle even when theres nothing to paddle wich means you have to find that place close to home you can go every day , and I know that broken arrow is'nt the best place for whitewater, but I know some folks at the aquarium in jenks . Mabee we can get you some time in the bullshark tank, just saying that will help with your rool and edging skills your doing alot better than when we met on big creek.and the tulsa wave experience, keep it up . and get John on board with the paddleing dayly push eachother to be better playboaters/creekers.

Ok guys and gals:

If you are coming in today to camp. If you are going to camp on 10 or 11 just go ahead and set up and I will get with you later. You will notice some improvements on these sites.

If you want to camp any were else you need to look me or the wife, Janet, up.
In the AM I will be at school. Janet will be on a Orange, Kubota, mower. Look her up.
You will hear it from a distance.

In the PM I will in the park. Taking of at noon. I will be out and around. Look for the big white
Chevy with the bent fender.

Looking forward to seeing all of you guys!
