1st Saturday Paddle Series
October will be on the Hiwassee.
With no freeflowing rivers running and no rain in the forecast so that is our safest bet. They are pretty much running 24 hours, so we have a little flexibility on the start time. Im thinking likely meet Reliance at 11-ish Eastern. I will send out an EMAIL ON FRIDAY to all that have signed-up with the FINAL MEETING TIME
Every 1st Saturday of every month in 2024 you will find us paddling a whitewater river or creek somewhere in Tennessee. We welcome all to join us. We will keep it on natural flow as much as possible. When water gets scarce, we’ll resort to the dam releases at Hiwassee, Ocoee, and Pigeon. Some weekends are predetermined with the assumption there will be enough flow. These will correspond with other events such as Rendezvous (Clear Creek), Jack Lyle Memorial Paddle (Big South Fork), Canoe & Kayak School Follow-up Paddle (Hiwassee). Other trips we will try to predict water levels and update the location approximately 1 - 2 weeks out based off of present water levels and expected rainfall. Just like the water we’ve got to be fluid. Things can change pretty quick.
TSRA membership is not required however there will be a $10 registration fee for nonmembers per trip. If you like us and think you will join us again, apply that $10 towards a membership and paddle next time with no registration fee.
