I am posting trip arrangements for the trip leader, Mike Danko. JP

Upper Mahoning River (Rotary Park to Thomas Swift Park)
Trip Leader - Mike Danko
When - Sunday, September 23rd
Where - 1025 1st St. Newton Falls, OH 44483
GPS 41.196854, -80.966869
Time - 11am

The reports I have gotten have let me know that Foster Park to Rotary has many blockages, so I am going to move the trip down river one section.
We will go from Rotary Park down to Swift Park, just over 7 miles of all flat, slower moving water. The section is passable with some areas where we will need to be single file and maneuver around down trees.
There is one spot were we will slide over a log, but I might be able to remove it before the trip.
The put in is down a hill that has a path to the river. If you have trouble carrying your boat, we will get it down for you.
This is a great section that offers lots of different scenery and is very rural and wooded. This section is part of the State Water Trail.
Hope to see you there!
Mike Danko
