The country’s largest week-long canoe/kayak camping adventure this year strokes through the 163-mile-long Etowah River that flows from the northeast Georgia mountains to Rome.
Registration for Paddle Georgia, the annual event organized by Georgia River Network, opens Tuesday at www.garivers.org/paddle_georgia, and organizers expect the 450 spaces available for the trip to go quickly.
Registration is on a first-come, first serve basis until the event sells out. Paddle Georgia runs from June 17-23 and will cover 125 miles of the river over the course of seven days from near Dawsonville to downtown Rome.
More information is available on the Paddle Georgia website at http://www.garivers.org/paddle_georgia or by contacting Joe Cook at 706-409-0128 or [email protected], or contacting Dana Skelton at 706-549-4508 or [email protected].
