Aug.18 White Water Rafting Plan

本文发表在 rolia.net 枫下论坛-- Trip Plan:
1) A group of us (12 ppl) will drive to the rafting place at River Run up on the Ottawa river on Saturday, Aug. 17th.
2) Depart from Toronto at 11:00AM, and arrive River Run camping site at 4:00PM afternoon.
3) When we get the camping site, we will start to get fun with full access to their kayaks, canoes, volley ball, etc.
4) Camp overnight at the facility on Saturday night.
5) In the morning of Aug. 18rd, Sun. at 9:30 am, we will start out for rafting. This will last the whole day. We will be provided the breakfast and lunch by River Run.
6) Upon return, video tapes of our trip will be played.
7) 5:00PM, back to Toronto. We will visit "Bon Echo Provincial Park" on HW41 Sunday for one hour on the return way.

-- What to bring:
1) Sport Sandals, Swimsuit, Nylon shorts, Sunscreen, change of clothes (wetsuits are available to rent)
2) Tent, Foam pad, Sleeping bag, Flashlight, Insect repellant, Fishing gear
3) Towel, Personal toiletry
4) Pets are permitted if you want. Animals must be on a leash or tied at all times.

-- Cost for each person:
High venture Rafting Fee: $115 (for 6 Passenger Boat)
Service Fee: $2
Camping Fee: $20
Total Cost: (115+2+20) + 7%GST + 8%PST(for meal only) = $147.23

We do have to bring our camping equipment but sharing is possible. There are also cabins available for those who doesn't want to live in a tent. The cost for 4 people cabin is $89/night.

-- Payment:
All rafting place requires a FULL payment upon booking within 30 days. River Run has this feature that allow each family to call in and pay by credit card separately. That will save me a lot of trouble of collecting money from each one. I will give them your names when I make the reservation for our group. Now, I am looking for a group of 12 which is fit for two 6-passenger boat.

I have already made the reservation for our rafting. Every family shall call 1-800-267-8504 and provide your names and credit card number.

-- Location: (Approx. travelling time 4 1/2 hrs from Toronto)
Travel Hwy. 401 or No. 7 to Hwy. 41.
Go north on No. 41 to Eganville.
Continue through Eganville to the traffic lights.
Turn Right at the lights (Hwy. 60) which becomes County Rd. No. 8. This will take you into Cobden.
In Cobden, turn right on Hwy. 17.
Go approx. 1 km to Foresters Falls Rd until you reach the turn off for Foresters Falls.
Go through Foresters Falls, until you are approx. 1 km outside of Foresters Falls.
Turn left at Grant's Settlement Rd, and follow RiverRun signs to our Resort

Let's have a blast.

    • Perfect and thorough information. You are worth to be awarded the BEST Coordinator this time -- because of no competitor (aha, just kidding...)
      Anyway, really appreciate your excellent job!
      One question, how cold is it in the midnight? Is the normal sleeping bag enough?
      • 谢谢. 0度的睡袋应该可以吧. ^_^ 温杀前阵子刚刚野营回来, 让他来说说比较有参考价值.
        • 自己直接付帐?有没有CONFIRM #?说属于KEVIN CHEN TEAM的就可以?DEADLINE?车分配好了?集合时间地点?多伦多市内有无PICKUP?要不要自己准备吃的?BTW,一般-5度的睡袋还可以,遇到坏天气恐怕糟糕~
          • 我已经将我的信用卡告诉他们了,如果你们不去,他们就从我帐上扣了。就说是Sunday K Team,就可以了。请尽快确认打电话过去。各人直接付帐省掉些麻烦。
          • 请大家最好最迟在周四中午前付清款。付款时你们还可以问一下RiverRun一些你们感兴趣的问题。
    • FOOD:费用中包括周日的早餐和中餐(由RiverRun提供),其余各餐请各自准备。
      • 那星期六的晚餐, 大家准备怎么解决? 还是有什么BBQ或篝火晚会之类的 :-) 星期六早上喝完茶, 出发如何?
        • agree
        • I was told that Zhang Yu couple will bring a BBQ oven..... ^_^
          • 那要不要准备些用来BBQ的东西?牛仔骨、羊肉串、玉米之类的?
            • 还要准备BBQ要用的燃料等等...
              • 知了。
      • 最新好消息!DXP和Melody将为我们准备丰盛的BBQ周六晚餐,大家只要自己准备些车上的零食,巧克力之类的,不用准备正餐了。费用最后大家平摊。(可带张支票)
    • 集合时间地点:周六10:30,地点请世嘉宝的给个建议,要沿着401一直向东。zhihaoxx, 在Sherped, Finch/Birchment 附近有没有好集合的地方?
      • 你最好鲜分配好车
      • 集结地旁边最好有个加油站,俺从Hamilton奔过来可能得补充点粮食,呵呵。
      • 集合时间地点:周六10:30,Sherped/Kennedy的西北角有片Mall,很大的停车坪,大家集中在Walmart的正门。
    • 注意事项:1)带眼镜的同学请用绳子帮好,防止落水时滑掉。
      • 注意事项:2)穿有带子的凉鞋,防止落水时鞋子失落。
        有人吃过亏,不要嫌罗嗦。:)
        • 建议不戴眼镜不穿鞋 :))
    • If it is needed, my place is available after 8:30pm on Friday night for all to meet. Otherwise please arrange ride for me, thanks!
      • I am not available on Friday evening. We got 3 cars which can take 12 passengers.
    • 俺已经交过钱了.周5晚上的时候把多伦多市内交通和集合地点确定下来吧.另外,长途奔袭是不是中间找个地方下来休息10分钟?如有可能,换司机?三辆车中每辆设置一部联系手机比较好.
      • 说的没错,中途是要休息一下。联系电话我晚上再发眉尔通知。有帐篷,睡袋等物。三辆车可能不够。
      • 我手上有一对对讲机,可以头车和尾车使用。我准备压后。看看能不能借到车载台。。。
        • 我也有两个对讲机, 我想在HIGHWAY上一两公里内应该没有问题. 我有一个功率大一点的, 不过就是电池不抗用. :-(
          • 我的是Motorola 5320可以和其它型号通信。充电电池坚持近10个小时应该没有问题。
            • 我的一个是YASAU, 一个是RADIO SHACK. YASAU的充电的接口坏了, 所以只能用一个升压器接AA电池用了. -- 唉, 一提这事就来气....
              • SORRY, 是YAESU.... :-)
        • 怎么确定谁是头车,谁是尾车?在高速上跟车很麻烦也累。不如确定下中途休息地点更方便些。
          • (Y)
          • 恩,这样也好。
          • 车上做个明显的标志?例如天线上绑一根红布条?跟车的窍门集合时俺讲一下.很容易的.俺以前跟过车,也带过头.当然,安全第一.跟不上不要硬上.中途肯定要集结一下.
        • 在高速上长时间跟车比觉累,对讲机有效范围太小,还是用手机吧。中途休息地点可以在Belleville附近,因为在那里离开401转向HW41。
    • 哪位家里有cooler或能借到?大热天的没有cooler,晚上用来BBQ的东西怕是会变质。
      • !!!UP!!!
      • DXP 已经借到。
        • C@@L !
    • 我手上有20个一次性的纸盘,还要补充什么餐具?
      • 太好了!不过各人还是再带个不锈钢的杯子较好。我带些BBQ餐巾纸去。
        • 杯子可以不用专门带。每人带2瓶矿泉水,喝完的瓶子将就就可以改装成水杯。或者带一次性的杯子。另外那里的引用水如何?可以买那种大桶的饮用水,如果需要我可以带上。
    • OK!账单都付清了!
    • TEST,TEST。 这个帖子是用GPRS无线手机联网帖的。速率57.6Kbps。// Testing Success.
      • 又来显摆那你?
        • K。天使不是想无线上网吗?你不是今天也要求带个laptop当GPS地图使吗?// 麻烦,不带了。:(
