Anyone interested in a one day canoe trip on August 18. Please contact Mr. Sierson. The plan is to start in Rome and paddle to lock 20 in Marcy on the Canal. The plan is to end the trip at lock 20 with a barbecue lunch and I believe a planning meeting for the up coming year. I will need help from people in shuttling vehicles as well as setting up and organizing lunch at lock 20. Please contact me as soon as possible so we can work on organizing this event.

Note from Mr. Obernesser:

I would propose that we meet at 8 AM at the pavilion on Mill St. We can do our safety checks and be in the water by 8:30. It is approximately 10 miles to Lock 20 in Marcy. This should take 3 to 4 hours depending on how we do paddling. Let’s figure on lunch at 12:30 and our annual planning meeting from 1 – 2 PM. If you need a canoe or kayak, some of us have extras. If we need more boats, we can rent them at Camp Kingsley. We will need a good head count for both food and boat rental by August 15. This event is open to all Troop 4 scouts and their families. The troop treasury will pick up the cost of this event.
