Weeny fest is the the signature club event for the true weeny boater. We will be paddling the 4.9 stretct of the New River from Glade Creek to the Grandview Sandbar. We will stop at the Mill Creek access and build a fire and roast hot dogs before finishing our paddle.
Meeting time is 11:00 at the Grandview Sandbar parking lot. We will drop the food off iand leave it in a vehicle (at the Mill Creek access) before driving on to the put in at Glade Creek. This is a simple picnic/covered dish affair.
post up what you would like to bring

We will plan to bring a veggie type salad such as broccoli and cauliflower with bacon and cheese. Jacy will be good for a sweet treat of some kind.Cupcakes or muffins are likely.
Looking forward to it,can't wait.

I can bring fresh veggies for a plate with something to dip them in, plus an easy dessert called Dirt. I missed the 50th, but I won't miss this one. I need to be on the river.

Hey Tony...we are there! Maybe some laps at Fayette Station and/or some work up at Thread the Needle? Nantahala was great! We read and ran it one day. Then took 2 days of instruction on it. Ready to go back.Really liked the area.

We were thinking about setting up camp at Grandview Sandbar. Will be down there late Friday, so an evening paddle would be great! Enjoyed the Nantahala, though that river was cold...cold...cold. Got a lot out of the lessons too. See ya this weekend!

Hello All, Barb found an inflatable kayak at the Gauley Fest, but we have yet to get a pump. Will anyone have a pump at the Weenie put-in? Or, are there suggestions for types of pumps readily available at Walmart, etc?
Looking forward to getting back with everyone! Rick

Hey Rick, I am pretty sure that you can get a pump to inflate the boat.Ruth is loaning her ducky to us and that pump should work for you.
I am anxious to see what Barb thinks of her new boat.I looked at the same one and I really like the look of it.I hope she enjoys it. SYOTR, Shelly,Jerry,Briar and Jacy

Thanks, Shelly. I figured someone would have something inflatable on this trip, but I didn't want to take a chance and have to try to blow it up like a balloon.
Glad you guys will make it... never heard of smoked tofu! Rick & Barb
