We are hosting a State Line Paddlers paddle on the Kishwaukee River from Bauman Park in Cherry Valley to Seth Atwood Forest Preserve on 4 July 2016.
We will meet at Bauman Park about 09:30, and plan to run the car shift by 10:00. If there is enough interest, the trip can be extended to the rest area on State Route 2 about ½ mile down stream from Meridian Road on the Rock River, and we will run car shuttles to both locations. Parking at Bauman park is crowded on 4 July, so arriving early is a suggestion.Disclaimer:
I am not a professional leader, and State Line Paddlers has no profession leaders. Hosting the trip involves setting up the trip and organizing the car shift. All Paddlers are responsible for their own safety. Members of the trip will provide any assistance they can in unusual situations, but make no claims of abilities.

The extended trip is recommended for experienced paddlers with moving water skills only.
