You will receive a confirmation email from the trip leader to confirm your spot. If you don’t receive an email by Monday night, call Anne to confirm that you are on the list.
If you change your mind or are unable to make it for some reason, please let the Trip Leader know asap as this will affect number of canoes required, assigning partners, etc. and won’t leave the rest of the group waiting for you.
Carpooling and Shuttle: Please make car pooling arrangements before we meet on Tuesday morning. If you carpool, please reimburse your driver (at least $5.00 would be appropriate for this trip). If you drive in a different car each way, please reimburse both drivers. This is a 30 minute drive and the shuttle is about 15 minutes each way.
Please note: Construction has started for the next 7 weeks at Weber and Albert Street and continues further on Weber Street near St. David’s school.
