Itinerary:

Come join us Saturday morning for a paddle on the Little River in Woodstock.  We'll put in at Olde Rope Mill Park at 9 am and paddle our way downstream and make our way to the 'secret' Lake Allatoona Waterfall.  We'll stop here for awhile to enjoy the waterfall before heading downstream further and explore the area.  Once we have covered about 3 1/2 miles we will begin making our way back upstream.  This is a flatwater paddle with very little current on our return upstream.

This event is BYOB (Bring your own boat). Kayak or Canoes are welcome.  No shuttle will be required, as we will put in and take out at Olde Rope Mill Park.
