Fleet Captain Dave Kitson's complete excel spreadsheet member mileage log for 2012 can be viewed by clicking here. 
 
Note: This report includes only people, places and miles paddled on club-sanctioned trips.  It does not include trips taken by club members who went out on trips without posting it for club participation.  Thus, the activity level by club members is actually much higher than what is shown here.
