[CINC] Looking for Replacement on Truth for Wednesday, July 15, 2009

[Geoff Grow]

Hi Hikers,

I am scheduled on the Truth for a day trip to SCI on Wednesday. The trip is a lot of fun, and you get to see parts of the island you've never seen before.

I am seeking a replacement. If I can't find a replacement, no worries, I still will go. It's going to be a gorgeous day. Maybe we can trade?

Sincerely,

Geoff Grow

Hikers!

A few of you have asked about the Truth Aquatics day trips this summer to Painted Cave, when passengers will either go snorkeling or kayaking. We are only letting certified hikers sign up at this point, although there won't be any landings for you to hike. But we appreciate the depth of knowledge you have about the islands in order to do interpretation. You will find these trips listed on our online calendars in the Island Day Hike section.

As I mentioned in my earlier email, you are welcome to snorkel, kayak or swim if you sign up for one of these trips. But for any of these water activities, we wouldn't be able to cover you with our liability insurance.

Truth tells me that if you plan to rent a kayak or snorkel gear--each costs $30--you would need to notify them at least by the day before your planned trip. And as always, it is wise to call the day before in order to confirm that the trip is going out as planned. Their number is 963-3564.

As a bonus, Truth will feed you lunch when you are out there!

Thanks for all you do, Clare
