We have two trips planned for this Thursday, the last of our regularly scheduled CCA Thursday paddles.
1. Kim Buttleman and Jenny Thomas will lead their final CCA Thursday trip for 2021. For this special occasion, they have selected (drumroll please) the Staircase. The level is predicted to be a surfer’s delight of about 3.2 feet. The weather will be mostly sunny, with a balmy high of 72 degrees, and a bit of wind. There is a chance of showers after 4 pm so they would like to meet at Potoma Wayside at 10:00 am (unless there is a groundswell of folks that want to take out at Weverton). Contact Kim at kpbva1@gmail.com if you would like to join. For any changes on the day of the trip, call or text Jenny at 703-907-9771.
2. In addition, there will be an Angler's Inn to Lock 10 trip, meeting at Lock 10 at 10:00 am. Forecast level is 3.6'. Don't pack a lunch - those who are so inclined will meet at Fish Taco after the paddle. Please advise Wayne McDaniel (macinmd1@gmail.com, 443 542 8779) if you plan to join.
Many thanks to our trip coordinators who planned and headed up over 50 Thursday trips with over 400 participants, many of whom were repeat paddlers. If you didn’t join us this year, 2022 is not far away.
