Project leaders presented short summaries of each project and the work their committees would be doing. Then all River Kids chose a committee on which to work.
There's lots of work to be done ahead, but it was a great start. Lots of enthusiasm and creativity all around. Rock on River Kids!
Looking Ahead:
Though it's only December, no doubt we will look back in May and wonder where the time went. I will keep you posted on dates for events as they are set by project committees. While you do not need to be at every event, we certainly hope that each River Kid does his or her best to chip in whenever possible. That said, all of our weekend activities really are optional. Please decide how mcuh you and your family can do (or want to do) with River Kids...It is our intent to schedule lots of fun options for the kids and for family members, the younger and the wiser!
Keep an eye on my emails for more info on some of these future events:
- Paddling Trips with Mike Clark (every month)
- Dugout Canoe Project with Mike Clark and John Ruskey (All spring)
- Polar Bear Pickup (sometime in Jan-Feb)
- Spring Break Family Outing
- Trailnet Cleanup - March 27
- Earth Day Festival in Forest Park - April 25
- Annual Paddling Camping Trip (Date TBD)
- RK Family End of the Year Party - May 21
Remember to get your paddling forms in if you're going. I need sizes by no later than Wednesday if you are borrowing gear.
Rock on!
