Thank you Briana!
I will keep posting the participant list and contact you individually with all the details and who needs what forms.

I cannot lead this trip as I will be working while you are enjoying the fireworks.
However, if someone wants to step up, I can work with you and we can discuss modifications to the paddle length and duration and even moving it.

Ilker TunayCarolyn,
Sorry for the delay. I just checked and you are not signed up for this trip? Can you do it again, please?
Boiling Spring Access on the Big Piney River
Trip Leader is Dave Haessig – dghaessig@yahoo.com – 314-304-7970
This will be an overnight trip with camping on the river. We will meet at the Boiling Spring River Access at 8AM. See the map link below for location of the access. Bring you camping gear, change of clothes in a waterproof container, your food and beverages (Non-Alcoholic Beverages while on the river). The Big Piney River is a prime Smallmouth Bass steam for those anglers among us. The Big Piney River is a gentle Class I stream appropriate for all skill levels and boats. You will be responsible for providing your own food, cooking equipment and beverages. No alcohol while on the river. Drive time from St. Louis is approximately 3.5 hours.
There may be downed trees, sweepers and strainers to avoid. Some boat handling skills are required. PFD’s are required while on the water. For questions as to your skill level for this paddle contact the trip leader prior to reserving you place.

Wanted to make sure every one knows this. A non ACA member must sign the ACA waiver and pay the $10 insurance each and every time they take a trip. I know everyone knew about the insurance fee but just got clarification on the waiver form so wanted to make sure everyone knew this.
Roger,
If you are using the link in this website’s calendar entry, that link must be broken. I’ll take a look and report back when it’s fixed. Go directly to RegFox.Com, login and try to sign up. If that doesn’t work, please let me know

Thanks to everyone who made this year’s clinic a success and a big shout out to a grill masters Bryan and Dave. We couldn’t have had better temperatures and the rain held off until the nd.
Mark your calendars, I have already reserved the deck for next year on June 15,2024. That means we’ll have the whole right hand section.
When I was talking to the concessionaire she said she was planning on having a whole meal for us this year and but it didn’t work out. I was really surprised and kinda glad because, after all, we had our potluck. Then she said she’d have a big dinner all planned out for next year. I didn’t quite know what to say at that point and figured I’d talk to her about it later, but I got to thinking. It would be A LOT less work to have the Skills Clinic without the potluck — and we did do that several years ago.
So please give me your thoughts about not having a potluck next year and getting our dinner from the Concession stand. I can tone down the expectations, telling her something like expect 20 people to buy “dinner” or I just tell her, no, please don’t do anything special for us.
Obviously we’ll talk about this next year but while everything is fresh in your mind, please let me know what you think. Thank you! (Those of you who did not attend this year but have in the past and possibly the future, interested in hearing from you too.)
Thanks! Eileen
For those of you bringing food for the potluck, please bring serving utensils if applicable. Would be a good idea to label or at least stick a post it note with tape on all of your containers, lids and u
