Whitewater Rafting on the Lehigh River
Date: 8/28/09 - 8/30/09
Location: Lehigh River in Pennsylvania
Whitewater rafting on the Lehigh River in the Poconos is the real deal in the rafting world. Visit the Adventure Center at Whitewater Challengers for a day or a weekend of real fun, real rapids, real adventure. Come for the whitewater. Or come for the scenery. Either way, the Lehigh River is the perfect close-to-home whitewater get-away. "This is the most fun you'll have all year!"
Even during our high water season, a milder version of the Lehigh whitewater trip is available. This is a great option for younger participants, or first timers who would prefer a little less of the thrills 'n spills of our more challenging trips.
Cost will be $41. per person. This includes the 3-meal deal. Camping is $4.95 per night per person. There is also a $2 fee for insurance for each person rafting, plus 6% tax. To raft you MUST be 5 years old or older. No exceptions!
The breakfast buffet includes selections such as pancakes, grilled smoked ham, potatoes, scrambled eggs, cereal, and beverages. Box lunches to take on the river feature a breast of turkey sandwich on a fresh Kaiser roll, a bag of pretzels, dessert and a beverage. Dinner buffets include items like BBQ chicken, hamburger BBQ, hot dogs, broccoli rice almondine, three-bean salad, coleslaw, dessert and beverage. The food is really good and it is an all-you-can-eat deal.
They also conduct an hour-long program on Native Americans, teaching us how to dance. There is also a wildlife officer that comes in with animals.
There is also usually a kid-friendly movie shown in the evening, which includes popcorn.
It's a great time - all you need is a tent, sleeping bag, cooler for drinks, camp chair, and changes of clothes.
