Parents will pick up their cubs from the locks.
Scouter Dan has offered to drop off the canoes and lend us a few Venture Scouts.
We will do some water and canoe orientation and spend some time on the water.
If your cubs have Personal Floatation Device (PFD) they should bring it. If they don't have a PFD that is ok, we have have group life jackets but the cubs may be more comfortable with their own.
Note: because we will be getting into and out of canoes on the water, cubs should wear light footwear in case they end up in the water -- avoid heavy boots or tall rubber boots.
