Paddling for Progress: A Journey on the River to Revive Our Town After the Storm

As many of you know, Hurricane Helene struck shortly after the conclusion of our 2024 season, bringing with it intense rainfall that resulted in significant flooding across our area. The aftermath of the storm left our outpost and surrounding property in disarray, but the owner and staff sprang into action with unwavering determination. Over the following weeks, they worked tirelessly, clearing debris, repairing damages, and restoring the facilities to their former glory. Through long hours and hard labor, they ensured that everything was in top shape, ready to welcome our guests back for another unforgettable summer season of thrilling whitewater rafting adventures. Their commitment to excellence and teamwork showcased their dedication to providing a safe and enjoyable experience for all visitors.
