Guide: Charles Jenkins
Date: Saturday, Nov. 10, 2007.
Trail: Caney Fork, in Jackson County east of Sylva, NC.
MEETING POINTS:
The meeting point will be 9:30 Saturday morning at Wal-Mart in Sylva. Wal-Mart is located at 1230 East Main Street, Sylva, NC 28779.
Brenda and I have marked our calendar and are focusing all our efforts on November 11th (the weekend after the Marine Corps Birthday) for yet another expedition to Caney Fork. We would like to invite all of our Rover Buddies to join us … for fun and adventure.
We plan on leaving Winston-Salem Saturday morning early enough to be at the Sylva Wal-Mart around 9:30 … and head to the trail by 10:00.
Everyone is welcomed. Like the old saying goes: If you can’t come and spend the night, then come and spend the day.
Thanks … and Happy Rovering!
Semper Fi.
