Full Name: Jasper Greve
Activity Title: Trip Organizers get-together -- Willamette Falls paddle and lunch. L2, 3-27-22
Date of Activity: 3/27/2022
Narrative: As the club is slowly waking up from a covid and winter slumber, I thought it would be nice to get us TO's together for a social event. Lets paddle, hang out, talk about our paddling goals for the upcoming season, trips you may want to lead and find co-organizers for.

Maybe it's been a while since you last lead a trip, and you feel a bit rusty or uncomfortable organizing a trip by yourself? Let's hook you up up with an experienced TO and get back on the water! Let's talk about how we can support each other and how the club can support us to make this the best season ever!

So, if you are a TO, or on a trajectory to become one soon, come join us! This is a wait-list only trip, contact me if you have any questions.

We will launch from Sportcraft Landing in Oregon city, paddle across the Willamette, play games, and work on whatever you want to work on. Then we go enjoy the scenery at the falls and/or play in the currents a bit.

Lunch is on me.
