      On Saturday, June 22 2013 lots of Stream Teamers will be meeting up as well as some from other groups.  We are meeting for registration 8am at the Boiling Springs Access.  Some canoes will be available to reserve so just ask and I will check with the Team running this event but there should not be any problems!  Some are even thinking of cleaning with the light of the full moon as well!  WHAT FUN!

      If you are interested in camping Saturday night you will be among many I am sure which will be a great time.

      Driving down together will make things easy.
