Shenango River, PADDLE FEST

mfdanko99 · 09-23-2012, 09:28 AM

Due to a railroad bridge work in the new section of the Shenango River we are unable to paddle it at this time so we will be paddling the same section as in June. This is a great section to do. Here is the email from Huge Clark of the River Watchers.

This is a very relaxing trip and a great paddle that takes you threw deep woods.
I would like to have our club meet at the Damn at 9 am so we all can meet up and do the shuttle and paddle together.
I will hope to have our banner so we all can find each other.

The Put in is off of RT 322 on Dam rd once you go over the damn make a right turn in the first drive and that is the put in. I don't have a exact address for it, but here is the Latitude: 41.4983867 by Longitude: -80.4614582

The Address for Riverside Park is Memorial Dr, in Greenville, PA 16125

I really hope for a big turn out from our club to show support for the river watchers and all the work they have done

Any Questions please call or email me.
