  • Cale Reeder on 5/16/2013 12:13:27 PMAlso for those KWPer’s new to Palmer Fest or camping with KWP there is a campsite being held at Harold Jessup’s site (not the CO-OP the other side of the river). The site is usually in the south end, go in make a tight right and drive to the end. There may be a Large White Event Tent up (if someone gets it on Friday), if not just ask. If you can’t find it or choose to camp somewhere else feel free to come down and partake during the evening.
  • Cale Reeder on 5/16/2013 12:10:20 PMKWPer’s (new and old) Brian E. will be at Palmer to take 2013 KWP membership forms and waivers, will have some on hand for filling out. In the event that he does not show up I will have some on Saturday evening.
  • Ry Wodsy on 5/15/2013 10:46:09 PMHey everyone, I joined KWP recently and have only met a few of you while running the salmon river at Mack fest. A few of my friends and I will be at Palmer river fest taking some clinics. It be nice to meet some more of you folks. Hope to see you there!

    • Travis Walsh on 5/13/2013 11:07:21 PMAwesome!!!. Tell her I wish her the best of luck.
    • Colleen Mycroft on 5/13/2013 11:10:27 PMThanks Travis, it is a big one!
    • Colleen Mycroft on 5/14/2013 12:42:37 AM@Trevor no worries there is always somewhere to paddle. i think some of Kwp have paddling plans at the fish hatchery. Never been but the bottom apparently is less intimidating.
  • Patti Johnson on 5/12/2013 1:18:36 PMThanks for all the KWP members that came out to help for the clean up. Good work! The river looked wild and strange out there !Amazing what the power of water does to rocks that weigh almost a ton. Check it out when you have a chance.
  • Patti Johnson on 5/12/2013 1:10:44 PMHi guys hope you had at good time at HOHW. The Minden preserve is in need of a good "clean" used fridge that still has some life left in it. Any members that has one we can have as a donation that would be awesome! Thank you in advance. PJ
  • Colleen Mycroft on 5/8/2013 1:49:37 AMTony and I are back at Franks tomorrow night, 6. Its closer.
  • Kevin Maggs on 5/7/2013 12:27:26 PMSoooo, weekend one, learning the basics at Burleigh, week two feed them to the Pettawawa at over 100cms? Or have things changed at KWP headquarters?

    • Kevin Maggs on 5/7/2013 12:56:09 PMWeek 2-1/2 Drinking lessons with Uncle Clivey
    • John Scott on 5/8/2013 4:28:51 AMGKC annual schedule: Weeks 1 - 52, run Elora gorge. Or have things changed at the GKC headquarters?
    • Kevin Maggs on 5/8/2013 12:48:10 PMGood one John but you chose a bad week. Last weekend alone was a good one for the GKC. Team Dumbass were stomping the Ottawa at 25. Iron Ring, little and big trickle, elevator shaft, plus the main. I hiked in to Moore's creek with some people and ran that. Upper Crow, Skoot, Drag, Callaghan and Beaver. I think the KWP were busy working on basic skills those days. Which I must admit is an improvement. BTW. Find your truck yet?
  • Emily Schmidt on 5/7/2013 1:27:49 AMHad such a great time at burleigh falls on saturday and thanks so much to the instuctors there for teaching me the basics !

    • Tony Whetham on 5/7/2013 12:59:38 PMThanks for helping us out. Hope to see you again.
    • Colleen Mycroft on 5/7/2013 4:51:09 PMEmily let me know if you need to borrow one of the boats, the green one or the red, white and blue one. Looking forward to seeing you out again.
    • Emily Schmidt on 5/7/2013 8:32:34 PMok i will and i hope to see you all soon!
  • Colleen Mycroft on 5/7/2013 8:17:06 PMTony and I were so impressed with Joey Hitchins from Liquid Skills that we have decided to take a two week clinic with him. We have booked Monday June 24 - Friday July 5th, that way we span the KWP Ottawa weekend. There is room for 3 more similar paddlers to join us if anyone out there is interested. It is a good deal and a meal plan is optional. If you are interested drop Tony or I a message and we will pass on the info. You can go on the liquidskills website http://www.liquidskills.com. Check out Louise Irwin, she will be teaching 3 of the 9 days.

  • Patti Johnson on 5/7/2013 3:46:05 PMThose of you who are not going to the HOHW please come out to the Minden Whitewater Preserve for the cleanup weekend. Arrival time is 9:45 Wear work/rubber boots,gloves, rainwear, rakes etc. There will be refreshments. It feels good to volunteer and show paddling spirit. Hope to see you there! PJ

  • Isaac Verhoeven on 4/29/2013 12:06:52 AMJust got back from the Ottawa for the CUKC trip, thought y'all should know its at 22
      Comments
    • Colleen Mycroft on 4/29/2013 12:26:26 AMHow was the trip?
    • Isaac Verhoeven on 4/29/2013 12:38:45 AMI'm very out of shape, lots of fun otherwise, burning box is now a CUKC tradition as well.
    • Caitlin Louise on 4/30/2013 4:52:36 PMI believe we had 4 boxes going around at one point
    • Laura Finnegan on 4/30/2013 5:18:38 PMwere you passing the box with your mouth? or just your hands. What about throwing of boxes? What level of burning box did CUKC achieve?
    • Isaac Verhoeven on 4/30/2013 6:13:11 PMpreliminary levels at best, there is still much to teach and I do not pretend to have all the answers, I'll be bringing some of the club's brightest "boxers" on KWP excursions to show how things are done in the big leagues
    • Caitlin Louise on 4/30/2013 6:15:04 PMI would like it to be noted that I did not witness a single game of burning box at Mackfest. I'll attribute it to me being in the wrong places at the wrong time... buuuut....
    • Cathy Maggs on 5/1/2013 5:27:26 PMThe GKC thinks outside the box.\
