Rivers Week Update
The BCC’s Biggest Annual Event – June 21-4-July 1, 2024
June 17, 2024 Update
Join dozens of other paddlers for the BCC’s biggest annual event. Most days, you’ll have a choice of where to paddle, from lakes to gentle rivers and from fun Grade I and IIs to challenging Grade III for those who choose to. Throughout the week, you’ll have opportunities to socialize, bike, hike and swim in the river. Apres paddling is often time for sharing snacks, drinks and stories.
- June 21-28 we will be at the Outpost Camp on the Similkameen River, https://outpost-camping.business.site/ about 4km east of Bromley Rock, paddling sections of the Similkameen and possibly Pasayten and Tulameen Rivers, depending on interest and levels. The primary contact will be Phil Rankin, prankin@telus.net and 778-871-4873
- WE WILL NOT BE HEADING TO THE SHUSWAP as the water remains unexpectedly high there.
- Then, for the long weekend, June 29-July 1, we will move to the North Thompson River, camping at the Rock and River Rustic resort, located on the river near Savona: https://www.paradisethompson.com/ A map is here. The primary contacts will be Dave Westell westell@shaw.ca and Trish Kinsey trishkinsey@gmail.com
Bring CASH to pay camping fees, and be aware that the Rock and River resort does not permit any glass for drinks – foam or plastic cups or cans only.
