Every summer, I go inner tubing down the Shenandoah and Potomac Rivers in WV, a little over an hour away. This tradition stems from my days at Virginia Tech, where tubing down the nearby New River was a weekly summer outing.
There's nothing quite like relaxing and floating down a river feeling the warm summer sun on your front, while being refreshed by cool water on your back as you lay nestled in your tube. And now (MID TO LATE SUMMER), without question, is THE BEST time of the year to go... when it's crazy hot and humid, making the water feel 10 times more refreshing!
I've made special arrangements for our group to go river tubing near historic Harpers Ferry for a 1 - 2 hour long trip (depending on water levels). We'll park our car where the trip ends, check in at 1pm, have lunch served to us from 1 - 2:30pm, and we'll then be shuttled 1 1/2 miles upriver where we'll splash and play through some small rapids before beginning our leisurely float down the river. Dropping over shallow ledges along the foot of the Blue Ridge Mountains, we are sure to enjoy this mellow and beautiful stretch of river. I've reserved their picnic area with casual river seating, and lunch *is* provided for us. We'll have a fried chicken picnic (veggie wrap can be substituted upon request) with potato salad, watermelon, and a drink!
We've got an early bird special for this event of $42! The first 40 paid sign-ups, or those who pay before Sunday, August 19th (whichever comes first) get the early bird price! After that, the ticket price will go to $50. We have a LIMITED number of spots so make sure to RSVP early and make payment to get the early bird price!
Also please know that your RSVP is not guaranteed unless we receive payment. When you pay, your online receipt is confirmation that we have received your payment.
Come join us, tell a friend, and let's have a fun, refreshing, and relaxing summer afternoon river tubing together!
