Taking advantage of our location at the end of the ACC School of River Paddling, we will motor on over to the Rockhouse take-out (an hour and 30 minutes), consolidate boats, go back to the Marshall Ford bridge (30 minutes) and start downriver until we find a good place to camp. Then we will take a leisurely two days to float north 15.85 miles to Rockhouse.
NOTE: This paddling location could change due to the severe weather predicted.

From the ACC notice:
We are going to do an evening float/paddle Tuesday night, 6/10/25. We are going meet and be ready to start the paddling at 6:00pm at the Peeler Bend put-in. We will be going from Peeler Bend to Lyle Park (Saline River Canoe). Mike Sacomoni will be shuttling us up as a group after the float.
As an encore from last month, I‘ll be bringing back the outdoor wok, this time for sweet fire chicken (maybe also orange chicken) and likely some kind of dessert. We would ask that you bring a $5 donation to cover the cost of the food. This is also a BYOB .
Meet us at Bayland Community Center or online.
