  • E-mail me offline, John, if you're the "head honcho" of this group; looks like you've made a great success of it; would like to brainstorm for central Kentucky "fringe" groups...

  • Hi John, thanks for the shout. The archer who tried kayaking must have been pretty bad since it was on a flat lake - no whitewater.

  • Not sure if last message went through. Sugar Creek sounds great. 10am still? Are there several parking lots? Where do i meet up?
