Guys (and gals),
Thanks for joining us...too bad the weather was such drag...we lost at least 50 paddlers from calls I got. But "when the going gets tough, the tough get going!" Paddlers are a hardy lot.

FYI, at one count, before people launched, we had over 120 kayaks/canoes on the bank...served 181 hot dogs...had 3 spills (all canoes)...had one guy from upstate NY, a group from Harrisburg, one fellow from Cleveland, lots of Buckeyes (my wife, cooking hot dogs, is an OSU grad)...great turnout, all things considered.

We're planning to do it again next year, starting from Riverside Park down to Big Bend (after we clean-up that section). Needless to say, we'd love for you to be there in big numbers.
