Daniela, you remind me of the South African who was told by a witch doctor to eat his own leather belt to cure his stomach ache. So he did, and it didn't. So the witch doctor said: "It just goes to prove, that the thong has ended, but the malady lingers on..."

Better to stick to tasty salads chopped and dressed by Caroline & me. Maybe at the AGM?

Denzil, I'm quite disappointed. If Paul won't wear his thong, and Kurt refuses to sing, why should I attend anyway?

Because I'll be in my Winnipeg office from 13-29 AUG, I can't be at Beast Feast, good because I am sure even with a suitable kayak I'm not sure I could steer between Lucifer's & Lucifer's Anus   ;D   No stunts this year from me, Dr. Daniella!

Bonne chance, a tout le le monde!

Please read the first post in this thread, the info has been updated. The put-in is owned by same people as Bonnet Rouge and dogs are allowed, however you have to stop at the Bonnet Rouge Site to register first.

I'd like to make it, but I may not be able to.

I will need to find someone to take care of my dog. I'd bring her along but she does not play well with other dogs.

Well, unfortunately Bonnet Rouge has anyway a big sign saying 'No Pet'. But the put-in camp site allows dogs etc.

Most likely going to be there alone... I dont think my girlfriend wants to hop in a duo with me again just yet hahaha But she does want to riverboard or raft.

If there is interest, I am going to check with my boss at Horizon X if were not fully booked if I can borrow a raft/equipment or have one for dirt cheap for saturday for those with kids/wives who dont paddle just yet or want to get initiated in whitewater. I would guide the raft and would have 7-8 spots in it.

Let me know!?

Club event: Beast Feast 2013, August 9 to 12 at Bonnet Rouge Rafting, Gatineau river!

The CdB Beast Feast is our club's main annual event: a weekend of river running on a stretch of the amazing Gatineau river near Maniwaki. The river is Class III big water (for a description see http://www.gatineau.org/en/river). Run the river Saturday, Sunday, and even play at the Bonnet Rouge wave right at the camping site. Some people head up Friday evening to camp and maybe even play a bit in the Bonnet Rouge rapid. A huge dinner feast is planned for Saturday. The event takes place at the Bonnet Rouge Camping Site near Maniwaki For information, see http://www.bonnetrougerafting.com/; turnoff to camp site road is at 46.280571? N, 75.922571? W. 

The river level is low again this year and thus will be suitable for the newest paddlers. Great beach for sun bathing, swimming and playing (volleyball, etc..) and great surfing right at the camping site! We'll even have prizes from Trailhead Paddle Shack for entertaining antics on the river!

Bring your significant others and children. Rafting trips can be arranged for the non paddlers! For information on rafting, please contact Isabelle Gagnon, the owner of Bonnet Rouge, through the website link provided above or directly at 1 888 449 3360! Pets are not allowed at the Bonnet Rouge camp site, the river take-out, but are allowed in a smaller camp site operated by the same owners at the river put-in which is at 298 Chemin Godin, 46.336080? N, 75.941658? W; turn-off from main road at 46.385374? N, 75.941579? W.

Camping fees are $12 each night and include the following day's put-in and take-out. Those who are only there for the day will pay $10 for put in and takeout (wether you are kayaking or just staying on the campground to swim or do food prep).

Once again Larry Wong will be our Beast Master, preparing a 20lb.+ side of roast beef for the Saturday evening potluck dinner! And this year Jacques Tejeda will be preparing a succulent fish dish. Each Paddler should bring his or her own contribution for the pot luck: appetizers, salads, munchies, desserts, booze... Bring your own cooler to keep everything cool, and your own plates, cups, cutlery and napkins! On Saturday after the river run, we will need volunteers to help prepare the corn and potatoes--please contact someone from the executive Friday evening or Saturday to be directed to the corn husking or the potato cleaning and wrapping parties! Guitars and other musical instruments are welcome.

So, in order to help us organize the event, please use the poll above to let us know how many of you will be attending!

Also, Bonnet Rouge campsite has an outdoor restaurant serving breakfast at reasonable rates. In order for them to plan ahead, please use the other poll (http://www.cdb-ottawa.com/simplemachinesforum/index.php?topic=5433.0) to indicate if you will be having your breakfast with them.

Finally, shuttle has been reserved for Saturday and Sunday at 11:00, paid by the club. Please show up with your boat near the big yellow bus at 10:30. And in order to help planning, please use the last poll (http://www.cdb-ottawa.com/simplemachinesforum/index.php?topic=5432.0) to let us know how many of you will use the shuttle!

It's going to be a great weekend and we can't wait to see all of our old and all of our new paddling friends!

--The Executive
