Cahaba River Canoeing – September 2018

The troop had a great trip to Living River, a camp in Montevallo, located on the Cahaba river. After leaving the church on Saturday morning, we arrived to camp and quickly changed into swim suits and hit the river to work on our canoeing skills. We practiced paddling strokes, changing spots in the boat, entering and exiting the water, submerging our canoe and emptying it, and finally paddling a submerged canoe. We then portaged our canoes from the river to the lake, where we swam, fished and set up camp. We had leisurely morning with a full breakfast, before packing up and heading home!
