Icebreaker 2013—Ron Miller
Once again, my sense of tradition kicked in, this time for the planning of the club’s first trip of the year, our ‘Icebreaker Cruise’ on New Year’s Day.
Upper Russell Fork Trip, 1st release weekend of October 2012. The
following individuals ran the Pound River and the Upper Russell Fork
to the Garden Hole take-out:
Greta Durbin and Marlow Durbin (first timers), Joe and Tammy Laurick,
Kevin Kizer, Lorraine Burnham, Martha Mount, and a woman from western
North Carolina (I don't remember her name). Weather was great and
comraderie was superb. We ate dinner at the barbeque place in
Kentucky.
Trip coordinator: Lorraine Burnham
Sometimes tradition is a good thing, and I am quite a believer in tradition. Several years ago, while active in another club, we held a ‘fall colors’ run in October on the Balcony Falls section of the James River in Virginia. This year I decided to revive that scenario for CCC.
By Ron Miller, CCC President
I think it’s safe to say CCC is everybody’s second-favorite club.
This revelation came to me last year when I attended my first Club Cup Challenge event at Nantahala Outdoor Center last year.
