Title: Let's run that Main (Ottawa river Saturday July 27th)
Post by: David macdonald on July 24, 2013, 10:56:50 AM

Yeah, so let's run that main channel of the Ottawa on July 27th.  Say a later start for more surf and less rafts. 

Meet at river run entrance at 11am??  I'm game to carpool out of Ottawa to save on gas

I'm in and also interested in car-sharing. The later the better, I really don't like those rafts.

So for carpooling from Ottawa, let's say meet at Westgate Shopping Center, in front of the Shoppers at 9am on Sat morning. 

Otherwise meet up at 11am at Riverrun just at the entrance there.

Sounds pretty good - but I think that Eagleson OC Transpo is a better carpool location.
And I agree with Dani - the later the better.  How about meet 10:30 at Eagleson? 
Babyface will still be swamped with rafts at 11:30...

A bit later is fine with me but I do want some time on the river and not be home super late.

How about Eagleson Park and Ride at 10am 
Riverrun at 11:30am.  By the time we run the shuttle and get organized we'll be at babyface by noon or so.

I need to go to OPS to rent a boat also, if one is available. I will then meet at RiverRun Gate for 11:30am.
I will call either Dani or someone else who left their cell phone number if I am successful at the unreserved boat rental.

Cheers,
Bruce.

Guys, thanks for this wonderful Saturday! Most of all, thanks for introducing me to Garb - I've fallen in love with him and woke up this morning at 6 AM, still feeling in 7th heaven, full of energy and longing to meet him again...
David, Larry, Mike, Robert, Bruce & Co - looking forward to see you again on the water!
