Whitewater Rafting

(September 17-19, 2021)

Troop 680 camped at Bear Creek Lake State Park in Cumberland, VA during the weekend of September 17-19 and went whitewater rafting on the James River on Saturday morning, September 18.  This was the first time T680 did an urban whitewater trip, rafting through downtown Richmond on Class I-III rapids.  Previous whitewater trips for the Troop have included the New River in West Virginia (class II-V) and learning whitewater skills on the manmade course at ASCI in Swanton, MD.   For many of the Scouts this was a first time experience.  The weather was great and everyone had fun.
