TCT,
Due to bridge construction across the Cuyahoga immediately downriver from Tannery Park, we are changing the meeting place/put in FOR THOSE PADDLING THE FLATWATER SECTION ONLY. Instead of meeting at Tannery Park, meet at 11:30 a.m. near shelter #5 in Fred Fuller Park, 601 Middlebury Road in Kent. This park is just downriver of Tannery Park and the bridge construction. Middlebury Road is off Ohio Route 59. This will eliminate the need for those doing the flatwater section only to get out of their boats no sooner than getting in them to carry around the bridge construction.

Those meeting at River Bend Blvd at 10:00 a.m. to paddle the whitewater section through Kent will have to carry their boats around the bridge construction, most likely on river right. This will be a moderate distance, but the footing should not be too difficult.

Air temperatures for Sunday are forecast to be in the high 40s. Those who stay behind with the boats at the put in while we run the shuttle will need to dress accordingly (or we may leave a car at the put in so those staying with the boats can wait in the car).

Please let me know by Saturday, Oct 26th, if you will be coming. Thanks.
