Indoor Roll Practice Coming Soon
As most of you know, roll practice has been
at
the
lake for the entire summer, or at least since it has been warm enough.
The decision was made to take roll practice to the Oak Ridge Civic
Center indoor pool earlier this year than in the past. The
pool is a great place to practice because it is warm, easy
to practice hipsnaps in, and it is where everyone is on Friday nights!
The costs are $3 per
boat. The one time yearly fee is $40. |
- New
Google Earth Rainfall Tool for pinpointing where the rain has gone.

Find
the Flow
Well it might not be that useful in our current drought, but
for when
the rain starts back up this is a really cool tool for
finding out
which watersheds actually got the water. The best part is that it is
visually easy to see where all the rain went. It
should be up soon. |

For
those of you who are going to be, or have participated in the ETWC
summer clinic or just want to kayak
This year we
are going to post all of the
pre-scheduled trips on the website as soon as they come in. We will
also have the forum for any spontaneous rain-based trips that may occur
at last minute. Those kind are hard to plan for, but are always a great
experience and allow you to see the backcountry rivers that are
incredibly beautiful and very fun. Even if you see a trip planned you
should always check the forum and call the trip leader in order to make
sure everything is still going as planned. Hopefully more will be up
really soon it should be a great way to ensure that trips happen all
the time.

ETWC
Discussion Board
Last year the
ETWC forum was
created, since its measly start at only two users it has grown to over
60 users and over 400 posts. It is a wonderful resource for planning
trips, asking general technique tips, or just talking about some issues
that are important to you. If you haven't checked it out yet, go right
now!
