Hi all.

To help those poor souls who will have to purchase the food, it would be nice to know approximately how many members are planning to join us this weekend. Could it be possible to indicate it here?

To start, Sara and I will be there...

Re: Beast Feast-August 7 & 8 - update

The CdB holds this event each summer ... corn, potatoes, spit roasted beef. This year the event bounced back and forth and was almost canceled or changed into something else. I really couldn't post an update until all the ducks were in order. Darryll is more busy now in his retirement has lent us his spit contraption this year.

Tasks have been divided up into those three food categories. Paul is in charge of the potatoes, Annie and Sara taking care of the corn, and I will tending to the 25 lb roast beef this year. So for the Saturday dinner, the pot luck contribution could be any of the following: appetizers, salads, munchies, desserts ... booze wine, beer, shots if you so desire.

Prior to the downriver portion of the day, some kitchen prep has be done with some helping hands, and a corn husking circle created after the day on the river.

You will need to bring your own plate and cutlery

Some people head up Friday nite to camp rather than rushing around Saturday morning. The Perseid meteor shower sort of starts that weekend ...

Beast Feast in August will be at the Bonnet Rouge Camping Site in Maniwaki this year.

DO NOT MISS IT!!! IT IS THE PREMIER EVENT OF THE CDB CLUB! MANY PADDLERS THAT YOU SELDOM SEE AND OF COURSE ALL THE REGULARS WILL BE THERE!

It will be a weekend of camping and running the Gatineau River which is running at lower levels this year and thus will be easier to paddle, even for the newest paddlers.
The date is the weekend of the 6-7 and 8 of August!

Corn Roast and most likely a Pot Luck on Saturday evening!
Breakfast can be bought on site and is very good!


Fantastic beach for sun bathing, swimming and playing (volleyball, etc..) and great surfing right at the camping site!

Bring your significant others, rafting escort-trip can be arranged for the non paddlers!


Stay tuned for more details and reserve that weekend on your schedule!!!


THE GATINEAU IS A GREAT RIVER TO PADDLE, UNFORGETABLE!

Prizes from Paddle Shack, Level Six and an Auction for fantastic Paddling Gear.


Check out the Bonnet Rouge website, it's great!
