Hello WVWA family! I am a little late on getting this on the message forum. The 2016 National Youth Science Camp will be June 25 & 26! Water permitting, we will be kayaking the New River from Glade Creek to Grandview sandbar. We will need experienced guides to show the campers how to kayak and get down the river safely. We will also need help on the shore for the safety talk and fitting the campers into boats and gear. Also, let me know what kind of gear you have to lend/donate (kayaks, duckies, paddles, skirts, helmets, PFDs, etc). I have reached out to ACE Gear shop to use their campground and pavilion. We can start arriving on Friday June 24th. Feel free to contact me with any questions, comments, or thoughts. Thanks, Harry CLICK HERE to volunteer for this amazing event that our club has been hosting for over 40 years!

I plan on being there Harry. Gotta do an inventory, but I should have gear and boats for three people as long as I stop "lending" big jim paddles.

Harry, do you about how many science campers/paddlers we have each day (sat./sun)? What are we planning on this year for numbers?

I won't be available this year due to a conflict with family vacation. I have two sit on tops and two K-1s that can be used.

I'd love to make the Science Camp and Novice/Beginner weekends but will be overseas for both. I can arrange to leave gear in Fville sometime before I go if it's needed for either event (4 boats, 5 PFDs, 6 paddles, 5 helmets, and 3 skirts).

We are only 3 weeks away from Science Camper Weekend. There are still many volunteers needed to make this a successful event. Please contact me if you would like to help out on the water, or off.

come on folks, step up and let's get this done! Bottom line, the safety factor goes up when we get more volunteers for each pod.
Tell those significant others that you're doing it for the sake of the children!

Harry I should have 4 boats for you, Remix 69, my son's Dagger outlaw (if I can get the bulkheads out), my Katana crossover, and Lori's Do-it-now sit on top. With all the gear, plus some extra gear.

My plan is the same as last years. I'll get there a day early,(most likely Thursday evening) unload all my gear out of the Waller hauler and setup under the shelter. I'll also bring the firewood. Unless otherwise instructed.
