Alright everyone...looking forward to seeing you all tomorrow! :D

If anyone needs to get in touch, my cell is five oh one, 6 eight one, 2 nine nine 3. My cell service is somewhat spotty in that area, but I believe I do get a weak signal there at the takeout...

If you are meeting us at the "13th St" take out bridge, be sure to be there no later than 2:15 for us to consolidate boats and people so we'll be able to get up to the dam in time for the sirens! If we don't see you there, we're going to load up and head to the put in (Narrows Dam off 19) so that we're ready to start when they release the water.

For those who can stay, we'll do pizza in Glenwood or burgers, etc. in Arkadelphia after we get off the river!

:clap: :clap: :clap:

Great day on the Lil Mo'. We had a great time! THANKS Heather! Enjoyed meeting some new people and seeing some old paddling friends. Water was great and the heat wasn't bad. Thanks again,

Chris

We've been wanting to catch this float for a awhile now & finally made it. Really appreciate you putting it together, Heather & to all the others who made it a fun & safe float.

It was super to meet new folks & catch up with others we've paddled with before. The mexican food topped off an already fantastic day!

Looking forward to floating again :D

What a great, fun day on the water! 21 folks managed to sneak out of work to get an extra long, long weekend! Good times! It was nice to see so many folks I know, as well as meet a few new ones. And the "new" Mexican place in Murfreesboro (in the same "old" location) seemed pretty good! Yummy!

Shannon, any others interested: You can check the schedule for the Narrows Dam releases here:

http://www.swepco.com/news/addResources/default.asp" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Note that to read the schedule:
1 generator=8...so if you see "24" it means 3 generators (2 generators would be 16. I really like 2 generators, but don't see it very often at all.)

The time that the generators start is confusing: if you see "24" listed at 1600 hours - that means generating will START at 1500 hours (3pm). Confusing, huh?! :?

Thanks again everyone for a fun day on the river.

Cheers,
Heather (aka Lupe)

Heather,

Hayden and I had a blast....That was Hayden's first river run (not counting the Spring). Thanks again for the coordination and words of wisdom from all the veteran paddlers. Great seeing some familiar faces and meeting some new people. Sorry we had to miss dinner. Looking forward to getting together again down the road (and doing my share of the shuttling)
