End of Summer

Summer is almost over and it has been a pretty good season for paddling.  We had a lot more rain than usual and the river has held some decent levels.  Over the Labor Day weekend Dale, Rob, Gary, Mario and I ran from Yates to Heritage park.  The level was around 1.1 so on the low end but we made it down with only a few places where we scraped.  The leaves are starting to "get ready" to turn and very soon there will be a lot of color as we move into Fall.  Along the way Dale was doing some trimming and ran his face into a stick!

There will be a meeting regarding the Clinton River and Lake St. Clair Water Trails  to discuss opportunities and challenges for establishing as premier paddling destinations.  The meeting will be on Wednesday September 18th. at the City of Utica Library (7530 Auburn Road)  See the picture below of the meeting notice.  There will be a public open house from 5-7pm. 

Keep an eye on the water levels and maybe we'll see you on the river!
