Rendezvous is next weekend! Forecast is for good weather (daytime highs in the 80s) and seasonable water levels (around 1000 cfs). Join us for the annual summer RMCC get-together! Day trips, camp cooking competition & potluck supper, pancake breakfast, etc. Trips available for all skill levels (Class I, Class II, and Class III). This will be an ACA-sanctioned outing/event which requires EITHER ACA membership OR a $5/person insurance fee and helmets for all Class II sections and above. And new this year – bring your un-needed boats and gear for a swap meet. Check out the Camp Cooking (Dutch Oven and otherwise) guidelines below from our coordinator, Kathryn M.
