**CANCELED**Hiwassee River Float Trip CANCELED

Tuesday, July 18 — Hiwassee River Float Trip. We will rent inflatable kayaks, aka “duckies,” and float/paddle down the beautiful Hiwassee River, which is an easy whitewater river flowing out of the mountains east of Cleveland. No experience is required. A great trip for a hot summer’s day! Costs: $40 for a 1-person duckie, $60 for a 2-person duckie. Rafts are also available. Check the weather forecast and wear water-friendly attire, including sandals or shoes; bring lunch and water. Gather up rain jacket, sunscreen, and insect repellent as needed. For carpooling, meet at 9:30 am ET at Food City in Ooltewah, east off exit 11 from I-75. (The water does not reach full flow until 11 am.) Please register to receive essential details from trip leader Betsy Darken, (423) 718-2060.
