Actually, there weren't any injuries except to some egos, maybe, as canoes were inadvertently dumped or repeatedly paddled into the shore. That's part of the fun, though, and fun was had in multiples yesterday as a group of ten of us spent the day on Sugar Creek, near Turkey Run State Park in Indiana.
After braving the early start from the WRCC parking lot, we arrived at Sugar Valley Canoe Trips just minutes after our 10am bus to the starting point had left. Fortunately, another one was leaving at 11am, so we chatted until loading ourselves and our lunch cooler onto the bus.
As I mentioned in the first paragraph, some of us need remedial paddling, steering, and basic canoe balancing classes. What a great excuse for another day of canoeing! We had loads of fun, in spite of the fact Katie D. was almost sucked into the mud, never to be seen again and Erin C. bet against sunburn ... and lost.
Thanks to ...
-- Cathy O. for planning the excursion and then not even getting to enjoy it due to an illness. Get well soon!
-- Andy and Jenn S. for driving and bringing the cooler.
-- Kati R. for driving.
-- And everyone else for joining in for the laughter and bonding.
One more thing .... put Sept 29th on the calendar for WRCC's next game night!
