More On Snowshoe

The following is from an e-mail Judy sent out...

I wanted to update you on the trip for this coming weekend, Aug. 15-17th. We will be staying at Margaret and Ellie Grove's place at Snow Shoe.

She said that cell phones do not work well there. Snow Shoe has a lake with boats and a pool. We can use all the amenities on Saturday for about $14.00 per person. She said it is well worth the price. We can kayak, canoe, paddleboat, and fish on the lake for that price. The lake is open from 10-6. The pool is open from 12-8. We will have a bike rack for taking a bike, if you are interested.
The cost for the trip is $100.00 if you are going white water rafting. If you are not, the cost is $35.00 per person for food and gas. You will probably need some extra bucks for the lake on Saturday and for eating out at least once. I would suggest at least twenty-five dollars just to be safe.

The White Water Rafting will be on Sunday at noon. We will get up early Sunday and have to be there before 11:30 ready to go. We are using Songer Whitewater. The web site is www.songer2008.com. You will probably need to download the waiver form and bring it with you on Friday.

Margaret, Ellie, and I will be buying the food to take. If you have some special drink or food(I have heard goldfish are not allowed) that you must have, please consider bringing it with you, or letting us know so we can buy it Thursday. If anyone wants to go shopping with us, (we are going on Thursday afternoon at Walmart), let us know. You could meet us there.

We still have two spots left on the raft if you know anyone else who would like to go....Right now we have five youth, and three adults going on the trip. Six are white water rafting. The raft will hold eight! Invite a friend! (Call Jeff-For David or Andrew)

Remember to bring sleeping bags, bathing suit, and towels... We will be staying inside at night. No tents needed. The lady at Songer said to remind you to wear water shoes or tennis shoes and polyester clothes, not cotton, for warmth in the water.

If you have any specific questions, you can direct them to Margaret Grove, Ellie's mom. She knows the area and will be able to answer them.
