Our club's 40th Anniversary is coming up in October. Everyone mark your trip
calendars now for Saturday and Sunday October 9th & 10th to come help celebrate the
40th anniversary of the Houston Canoe Club. We will be doing it the way we
do best, by having fun on the water with lots of fun folks.
We are going to Lake Raven at Huntsville State Park north of Houston. If you haven't been there yet
it is a beautiful lake with nice camping. I guarantee it will not rain. The
plan is to start out Saturday morning with a large paddle around the lake.
After lunch we will have games and events right off the shore next to our
campsites. Take part all you want or just relax in your chair and visit.
Saturday evening we are having a BBQ supper in the group shelter which you can paddle over
to or drive, followed up by a star-gazing paddle and a campfire. Sunday we
will do some laid-back paddling. You can camp or just come up for the day. The
club is reserving 10 campsites where we will pack the people in, or you can
get one just for yourself by calling the park.
HOWEVER WE NEED TO HAVE SOME IDEA WHO IS COMING.
You will get a form in the mail. When it comes in, please fill
it out, include an $8 per person check for each person who will be at the
dinner and mail it back to the PO Box ASAP. Whether you have been a
member for 40 years (we do have some) or just a short time, let's all come out to
the 40th celebration.
See you there.
