Rafting Trip Information

Annual BUMC Youth Rafting Trip
Ocoee River

Date: Saturday, August 8
Be at the church at 6:30 am. We will be pulling out of the parking lot, no later than 7 am.
We will return to Nashville around 9 pm. We will call your parents 2 hours out if it appears we will be earlier or later.

You will need your to bring money for dinner, a sack lunch and clothes to change into after rafting.

What to Wear on the River -We guarantee that you are going to Get Wet!
During the summer you should wear a swimsuit or shorts, t-shirt, river sandals or old sneakers.
Footwear is required so please wear shoes that will stay on your feet and you won’t mind getting wet. Don’t forget the sunscreen and sunglasses. Eyewear retainers are recommended.
In the Fall and Spring please be prepared for any type of weather. Clothing made of wool or synthetic materials such as fleece, nylon, or polypropylene will help retain body heat. A wool cap and wool socks are also helpful. Please avoid heavy cotton sweatpants or shirts and denim jeans, etc. Cotton and jeans will only make you colder when you are wet!
We have hot showers and changing rooms for after the trip. So don’t forget your towel and a change of clothes.

Don’t forget!
• sunscreen
• sunglasses with retainer cord
• towel, change of clothes and dry shoes

Please check the Big Frog Expedition website for rafting pointers.

Look forward to seeing you on Saturday!
