April 21-23 - Flint River Overnight

8 scouts (Brian Corbett, Brian Flamm, Ian and Brennen Graessle, Peter McKenna, David Forman, Jaime McKenzie, and Sam Francis) and 5 adults (Pete Corbett, Eric Flamm, Rick Farber, Dave McKenna, and Mark Ferrano) participated in an overnight canoe trip on the Flint River. We were organized into our crews for the Quetico trip this summer, with an extra crew for the scouts who aren't going to Ely.
We started at Lawhorn Canoe Base (Flint River Council) and paddled to Evans Island (around 8 miles, I think) on Saturday. We had lots of time on Saturday to relax or play on the shoals. On Sunday, we paddled down to the Highway 316 bridge (about another 7 miles) where we were met by the canoe base staff and transported back to camp. We ate lunch in camp and hit the road for Marietta.
