Whitewater experience on rafts and inflatable kayaks on the Kern River.

FINAL PAYMENTS NEEDED BY 4/27/07

Last year’s whitewater rafting expedition on the South Fork American River was a huge success, and fueled a request by the PLC for another whitewater trip this year.   So, this year we will be going to the North Fork Kern River. 

The Kern River is one of California’s most popular whitewater destinations.   This section of the Kern River ranges from mild calm sections to wild class-3 rapids.  The fishing is also reported to be excellent.

Our whitewater outfitters will provide instruction and gear for a multi-level whitewater experience.  Scouts participating in this event have a choice of two different plans on the river.  Group 1 will have an opportunity to earn the Whitewater Merit Badge on Kayaks, and group 2 will enjoy the same stretch of river on rafts and Kayaks.  Both options cost the same.  Both groups will traverse the same section of river. 

Please Download and print out and complete all attached documents.  Bring these documents with you to the church at departure time.
