**
PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS IS A BYOB (BRING YOUR OWN BOAT)
EVENT. ** Join us for a fun summer paddle along a flatwater section of the Etowah river. The Etowah River is a 164-mile-long waterway that begins northwest of Dahlonega, Georgia. We will be doing a section (13 miles) above Lake Allatoona starting near Ball Ground and finishing at Etowah River Park. There will be plenty of time to stop and swim as well as a rope swing (assuming it is still there)!! And if the water levels are right we have some shoals to play in that were created by old fishing weirs. You will be required to bring a PFD!
