RE: [Paddlewise] SPAM-LOW: Wanted - Kayak Stories

Hi Craig and everyone else too,

We in southwest Florida are just coming into our prime paddling and camping
season, so there's a lot going on. There's a good culture of trip reports.
Our "club" which is organized only slightly more than Paddlewise, is
basically a Yahoo group that coordinates paddles via Yahoo and posts reports
and photos as well.

As there are many others more active than I am, can I suggest you join or at
least read the messages etc. from our yahoo groups? If you find something
particularly interesting feel free to share it with the Paddlewisers
directly.

There are actually four Yahoo groups - SWFLPC, PCPCNaples, SWFLPCKFG and
MangroveNavy. Here's the breakdown - Southwest Florida Paddling Club is the
mother of all the above. As interest has grown we've started having more
trips both north and south, so for geographic convienence as well as
political clout, the group in Naples formed Paradise Coast Paddling Club of
Naples. We all consider ourselved one "club" but the southern faction has
chosed to organize more formally to achieve some of their local goals. The
other two groups are special interest sub-sets, KFG stands for Kayak Fishing
Group and the MangroveNavy came about to focus on kayak camping.

You can pretty much see all the trip reports in SWFLPC and PCPCNaples. There
will be duplicate posts as not everyone has elected to belong to both.

Please join - we have many members from other parts of the country and even
other countries who follow our adventures. Some come to paddle with us while
they are on vacation, which we do encourage.

Enjoy,

Carey
