Join us for a one-mile paddle upstream and back from the newest boat ramp on the Alapaha River.
There’s plenty of room to stay six feet apart on the ground and ten feet apart on the water.
When: Gather 9:30 AM, launch 10 AM, Saturday, June 13, 2020
Put In:
Naylor Boat Ramp, 6955 US 84 E, Naylor, GA 31641, in Lowndes County, Georgia.
From Valdosta go east on US 84, cross the river, make a U-turn when you can,
go back west across the river and turn right into the park around the boat ramp.
There’s also a nice beach in the park a bit downstream from the boat ramp.
