This is our annual Spring get together to meet friends, plan Spring,
Summer, and Fall activities as well as tell tall tales about early Spring
adventures. This is THE meeting where many summer trips are planned for
the up-coming expedition season. Many of these trips are not published and
you have to come and talk with your fellow paddlers to hear about them.
Dessert Contest This year, the NH AMC Paddlers will run a dessert contest
with 3 prizes for those are judged by all to have brought the best
desserts. First winner gets first choice of the prizes, etc. Dennis
Belliveau, Jeff Lamping, and Rod Dore will each procure a prize, so you
know they will be good.
Spring Whitewater Paddling School
by Tom Todd
The Spring Whitewater School is scheduled for April 6-8, 2001 with
roughly the same format we've used for many years.
The committee consists of Rod Dore (Chair), Verniel Morin (Registrar),
Dick Morin (Logistics), Tom Todd (Instructor Organizer) and Leslie Hollweg
(Kitchen Manager).
We've managed to do a lot of organizing via email and web. We will
contact other off-line members if needed. If you would like to volunteer
to help in any way, please use our special form on our web site: www.nhamcpaddlers.org/school.htm
. Those wanting to volunteer their services and don't have on-line access
should please call Rod Dore at 603-898-2619.
This is a great time to learn the joys of paddling introductory
whitewater as well as improve your skills for handling obstacles while
touring. If you are interested or have a friend who is interested in
attending this fantastic school, please have them contact Verniel Morin at
603-742-4652 (7 PM - 9 PM) to get an application.
