Ozark Mountain Rowing & Kayaking Club’s

Thursday, June 12, 2008 Fun Paddle @ 6:00 p.m.

Date: Thursday, June 12, 2008

Who: All interested paddlers, regardless of club member status. Visitors are welcome!

Where: Lake Taneycomo

Put-in: Next to Scotty’s Boat Dock at the south end of the Branson City Campground – boats will be launched from the “new” sandy beach next to the Dock.

Meet Time: 6:00 p.m.

Info: Paddlers or those interested in paddling can join this fun-loving group of kayakers for a refreshing paddle on beautiful Lake Taneycomo. This is an easy paddle for all skill levels, including beginners. This will be a leisurely 1 ½ to 2 hour paddle. We will launch the boats and travel to the east shore for a sight-seeing quiet paddle up Turkey Creek and then return to Lake Taneycomo to cross over to take in the water and fire show at Branson Landing before returning back to the launch site. All paddlers must wear a PFD while on the water. Please plan to be at the put-in so the kayaks will be in the water at 6:00 p.m.

Directions: From the Business Highway 65/Branson Landing Boulevard roundabout, head south over the bridge over Roark Creek. Continue south past the Bass Pro parking lot until the city campground appears on the left. Turn left into the campground parking lot before the overhead railroad trestle bridge. The spring flooding has washed away the gravel and left a good helping of soft sand which is natural for a kayak put-in just 25 foot north of the ramp onto Scotty’s Boat Dock.

Contact: For additional information, contact Eric Farris by email at: eric@farrislawgroup.com

THIS IS A GREAT TRIP FOR FIRST-TIME,
BEGINNING AND ADVANCED PADDLERS ALIKE.

As you are planning your week, look to see if you can free up a couple of hours after work on Thursday, June 12th to go paddling with us!

If you need a kayak for the paddle, then call Rodney or Larry. They are board members of the Ozark Mountain Rowing & Kayaking Club and local outfitters. For a reduced price (for club paddling trips), they can deliver a kayak for you to the put-in and provide you with a paddle and a life jacket.

Hope to see you on the water soon!

We hope we can see you on the water on 6/12. If you don't want to paddle, but would like to watch a group of kayakers push off, then come on out to cheer us on!
