Default Picnic update

UPDATE: (07/17/22) The club picnic and the safety training will be held at the Espyville launch area of Pymatuning State Park. DCNR recommends having the class in the protected bay of the launch, and they have the pavillion reserved for our use. There is a modern restroom facility, and we believe we are going to have electricity. This area is located directly across the causeway from Andover OH. We do still need folks to RSVP for the picnic.

Ken, I feel your pain. The good news is the parking lot and launch at Espy are a short, level walk. Looking at the site, it does seem a better, more protected area for training than the open lake, and the pavilion there seems quite nice. And we will have electric.

Ken, You could paddle between the sites to save on unloading and re-loading!

Default Trailer

I will have my pilot with trailer if that helps in any shuttling. I can put 2 canoes on the pilot and 16 kayaks/8 canoes on the trailer.
