Trapper John’s Canoe Livery (7141 London-Groveport Rd., Grove City, OH 43123)
Cost: $20 Cash
RSVP Here (appreciated, but not necessary!)
Last year’s evening paddle was such a success; we have decided to do it again! We have booked our third evening private canoe and kayak trip at Trapper John’s in Grove City.
Meet up at the livery at 7pm to register and pay ($20 cash) before Trapper John’s staff takes our group upstream where we’ll embark on our canoe trip by 7:30pm. Please let us know if you have any questions or if you would like to carpool. We’ll be off the river around sunset (9pm).
We are also looking for a rough expected headcount before the trip to help Trapper John with staffing planning, so please let us know here if you can make it. Of course, we’d love to have you along even without an rsvp, and please invite friends!

Join us for a weekend of backpacking at Twin Valley Metro Park.You don’t have to be an experienced backpacker; this will be fun and doable for all.

The plan is to leave early Saturday morning and hiking 7 miles to our campsite; Sunday will be another 7 miles back to the cars (there will be extra trails if some desire to go little farther). This year, we also have a priest interested in joining us, so we are looking to have Sunday Mass on the trail!
Cost for the trip will be around $35 for food and gas. Additional cost may include any personal gear items for the trip. We will be providing a list of equipment needed and any extra gear that could go around (if willing to share, please let us know).
