Excellent questions:) Basicly we are trying to just judge interest initially,
but right now we are looking at doing the program in Arkansas. Most likely at the Ouachita River and Spring River.
We have additional options and would consider our Georgia site for the ICE if we get a crew that is up to a challenge though.. That location has some very unique training opportunities that make it well worth the drive (plus some great paddling!!)

As for dates, we are looking at the beginning of April for the IDW and late April for the ICE

Cost is typically in the 500.00 range, but the ACC historically has assisted members who want to pursue this, once approved by the ACC BOD.

Hope that helps!
