The End of an Era...We are Shutting Down the Messageboard

The messageboard is now in read-only mode and no new posts or topics can be created. We will leave the messageboard up for historical purposes, but you will not be able to make new posts or comment on existing ones.

We have started a Discord server and hope that you all will join us on there. Technology has changed over the years and maintaining the messageboard has become somewhat of a pain in the butt and Discord offers many features for users, the main one being a very polished mobile app.

We really hope you all will join us on Discord and think you will like the platform. Use the invite link below to join.

Nope, this was the first time I've taken a real SWR class. I'm hoping to get down to the Ocoee in a few weeks though. Well, really I'm hoping not to. I would much rather it keep raining; as long as it is raining around here there are plenty of things to run and no reason to make the trip down to the Ocoee. But eventually it will dry up and I'll be down that way.

My mom went with the church to the Ocoee this weekend. She got to see a real SWR firsthand. She said it was awesome how they had everything set up so quickly with the ropes and all, and how the guides were positioned perfectly to retrieve the swimmers. She's hooked on rafting now, she even bought herself some Keen sandals...
