This picture from the raft trip in 2005 kind of reminds you of a train ride at Kings Island but after that the simularities end and for the record the trip that year was great.  For those signed up to go the final word on the trip is plan to meet at 6:30 am on Saturday and depart promptly at 7:00. If you are running late meet us at Wendys in Oak Hill West Virginia! After an early lunch we will proceed to the river, assemble and load the rafts while moving the vehicles down to the take out point with the assistance of a local friend. After putting in we will travel down river to about the half way point were we will pitch camp for the night.  Plan on a great nights sleep with the sound of the river in the back ground.  Sunday, breakfast and break camp. Travel on down to the take out point where we will break down and unpack the rafts. Supper will be once again in Oak Hill Wva. followed by the drive home.   We normally get back in to Jackson between 8:00 and 9:00 pm. “Be Prepared” for a great weekend….

I just read that Scouting has its own TV show currently running on the “Outdoor Channel” which is channel 49 on the Jackson cable system.  The show is called “Scouting for Adventure” and here is the link to its web site:  http://www.outdoorchannel.com/Shows/ScoutingForAdventure.aspx

The show is on on Wednesdays at 8:30 am and 6:30 pm also on Saturdays at 2:00 pm. The promo video is about scuba diving and looks interesting.  There is also information on the Councils web site at:
