Conservation Trips: Save Rivers, Gas & Cash

Friday, June 15, 2007

These trips are b ooked by the boatload. This means you charter the boat and the number you put in it is up to you, to a maximum of 6 boaters. There is only one price. The river use fee is included. Simple! Availability is limited, so book early.

How are they "conservation" trips? Two ways: First, we write letters at lunch on environmental issues; and second, full boats are more energy efficient.

Conservation Trips also include the Organizer "Vanload" Incentive: Every twelfth person's fare is refunded to the organizer, after the trip. If you book two boats, the organizer goes for free. If you book four boats, you get paid to go rafting.

Check it out: A ven full gets 150 "person miles" per gallon of gas. That's GREEN!

Saturday Chili Bar Conservation Special: $534 oer boat or as low as $89/person complete! No lunch is provided. Meeting time is 8:15 am. 6 boat maximum per Saturday.

Middle Fork Weekday Conservation Special: $594 per boat or as low as $99/person complete! Includes lunch. 4 boat maximum per day.
