Saturday several of my RockiTown kid's worship leaders and myself took our families up to North Carolina for a whitewater rafting trip down the Nantahala River. We got there about 10am, and spent a couple of hours bouncing around on the waves and splashing through the rapids. We had a blast! Its a rowdy enough river to have plenty of excitement, yet easy enough for younger kids to enjoy. Its been about 15+ years since I've been whitewater rafting, but we had so much much fun, it won't be another 15 years, for sure! We used River Runners Retreat, and I highly recommend them. Our guide, a young guy named Ian (pictured here with us), made it entertaining for everyone. Next time, we've decided we're going to step it up a notch- a run down the Ocoee River! Its a little tougher, not really for younger kids, but hey, we're "river rats" now!
