I'll go with Tibor, Bill and Tomas Saturday.

Paul
I'm thinking of going as well. Are you still meeting at Bonnet Rouge? If yes, what time?

Not sure. We are taking the shuttles from the high school, at least I am. The river was at minus 2 and a quarter yesterday. I was at Pushbutton and it was good. People were doing spins etc. so it had to be up at that level. When we were there on the Friday, it was just a wave. It was way better than that yesterday.

Thanks Liz for the info. OKS must have done a mistake when they entered the level.

I'm going up tonight if anyone wants to come with me. I'm staying at the high school though. Might as well go for the full experience as I have done in the past. It's not bad and there's lots of people to meet. It's a festival after all....might as well be festive. I may be bringing Christian back on Sunday so there someone may have to ride with a boat in the back as I really don't like having three on my roof.

Hey!

Do you think you guys will be back to the take out for 5PM? I may join you since the Ottawa is back at -3 1/2. I'll decide tomorrow morning, but I guess I could do some park and play at Bonnet Rouge.

I'm paddling saturday and sunday, maybe get a fast second run in on saturday if some paddlers are interested. My fastest time is 1 hour 45 minutes would like to drop it down to 1 hour and 30 minutes, it's going to be hard with a shorter boat, no scouting, just go.

Anybody planning to only go for Sunday (either arriving Saturday evening or Sunday morning)? If yes, I would like to car-share!
Thanks,
Dani

Dave, bring your family to Bonnet Rouge on Sunday! Weather should nice, there's a beach for the two girls, and you can run the river with everyone!

I usually camp near the road down to the Bonet Rouge beach. I'll see you Friday evening!

Can we just pay for supper? If so where do we sign up? I looked up the site and it's only for the two day option...
