Canceled due to forecast of strong winds.

Meeting Location: Canoeing For Kids on the west bank of the Saluda River. The location is at the end of the frontage road behind the Park and Ride at the intersection of Highway 378 and Corley Mill Road. Going west on Hwy 278 (Sunset Blvd) from Columbia. Cross I-20. Make the next right turn onto Corley Mill Road.

This trip will start at 10:00 at Lawton Park on Prestwood Drive in Hartsville, SC. We will paddle about 15 minutes up the lake to a cypress swamp which will lead us to a clear, deep creek. The creek is very shady with lots of twists and turns. There is a good place to take out for lunch. There is plenty of water, no downed trees (as of last week), and no poison ivy hanging over the water.
