Dear Paddler,
Mark your calendar for the 4th Annual Ohio River Way Paddlefest (see web site link below) set for July 8 and 9 in Cincinnati. Please forward this information to your friends, co-workers and fellow paddlers. They'll be glad you did! Register on-line today at Ohio River Way’s Paddlefest website. The modest $20 registration fee is the same as last year AND includes your 2005 collector's edition Paddlefest T-shirt! This year's Paddlefest will feature the Ohio River Festival on Friday, July 8 from 3:00 - 11:00 p.m. at the Four Seasons Marina. It's free and open to paddlers and non-paddlers alike! Enjoy our live music, food, "Paddlefest Brew", gear swap, wooden boat show, silent auction, outfitter's mart, River Education Expo, boat demo, ACA on-water paddling instruction, fishing clinic for children, paddling film fest and overnight camping. If you like rivers and the outdoors, you'll love this event! If you're paddling the Ohio the next day, drop by the Festival to complete your registration and drop off your canoe or kayak in our secure "boat check" area next to the put-in. Then “Paddle the Ohio” on Saturday, July 9 in the largest on-water paddling event in the Midwest. This is the only time of the year that the Ohio will be closed to barge traffic during the day. You can enter one of our three races • 14 Mile Canoe Race with $3,500 in prize money • 9 Mile Amateur Race • New 6 Mile Adult-Youth Race Or you can take your sweet time floating down the beautiful Ohio stopping if you like to hear one of our brief "Riverbank Talks" by experts on Ohio River history, ecology, wildlife and geology. End the morning at our Finish Line Celebration at the Cincinnati Public Landing. Enjoy music, food, refreshments and watch (or participate in) our "Bridge to Bridge" sprint races, war canoe races and our inaugural Corporate Raft Race Challenge, (see our web site for details). Then catch our shuttle busses (more on hand this year) back to your vehicle at Four Seasons and return to retrieve your boat from our "boat check" area on the Public Landing. All the proceeds will benefit The Ohio River Way's work to create hike, bike and paddling trails along the Ohio River linking river towns, parks, historical and cultural sites and recreational facilities from Maysville, KY to Madison, IN. Don't delay... Register on-line today at: www.ohioriverway.org/paddlefest/ for the Ohio River Way Paddlefest. Brewster Rhoads Chair, Ohio River Way Paddlefest Steering Committee |

Richard, have you tried sending a message to Cintibud via BT's "email
member" option. I'm pretty sure he hangs out there.

I was just (yesterday) lookin' at a Julie Keller Fitzpatrick shot (on the AW website) of you running the Cascades of the Nantahala. I s'pose I could try that, though BoaterTalk is such a joke I heven't been there for years! Boatertalk's only half a joke now! The joke's now unilateral! Boatertalk has been split into a boating-only forum and Liquid Lounge, for all the non-boating chatter. The split has been incredibly successful too! Plus, now if you are a BT member, you can filter out posts by other BTers who's posts you don't want to see! (I get filtered a lot! :-) ) John Kuthe... |

IMO BT has changed considerably recently, moving most of the nonesense
to an off-topic forum of its own. I must admit that I have not spent much time there in the last two months, ever since I lost my fast internet connection at home (I've been waiting for a glassfibre connection that is about to be connected to my house in the next couple of weeks), besides, I went on a two week kayaking holiday in Greece. Slowly picking up the connection to the different forums again, but untill I get a fast connection at home, I don't have the time to keep up with all of them. Wilko http://wilko.webzone.ru |
