CAMPING WEEKEND: I'd like to extend an invitation to the SCPAVRA members to camp out and spend the WEEK or Friday, Saturday and Sunday at our home. Bring your camping gear, food and beverages. I'll supply the porch for relaxing as you gaze over the Susquehanna River, fishing all weekend (you can usually walk across the river in August), campfire, horseshoes and friendship that is code for PARTY Friday and Saturday evening. We'll have a chiller table set up on Saturday for cold items and the grills for cooking. Canopies will be up for rain or shine. Bring old shoes if you plan on going in the river.

A river float with kayaks and canoes on Friday is planned, all are welcome to join in or sit on porch, bring your own toys (kayaks & canoes) if you have them, pull out from my house at 10:30. A limited numbers of loaners available so let me know ASAP. If you already told me you would like to go please tell me again. The float will start at the Millersburg Ferry launch, last about 5 Hours, ending at our home.  Pack a lunch, water, sunscreen, your favorite beverages, fishing rods and cameras.  Don't forget to wear river shoes. If you are spending the weekend or evening we will car pool to Max's Restaurant, anyone can just join us at Millersburg  for dinner Friday evening 7:00.  Please bring breakfast foods and any hard alcohol drinks to share or preferred beverages and we will have a great weekend to talk about for years to come.  Can't wait to have you all visit and have fun.
