  1. It's winter in New England and there is always the possibility of a snowstorm. Haverhill HS will let us know by 9:00 AM if a pool session will be canceled due to inclement weather and we will post it here as soon as we hear. 

    Thanks,

    Janice

  2. Great trip report and photos!  Thanks Peter ( and Pru for your wonderful photos!). It was a wonderful weekend. 

    One correction - Friday, Day 1 group 2 went around the Porcipines and also Ironbound where we encountered some big slow swells (several sets of 4-5 feet swells) along with some lively conditions. 

    Very funny photo...the deadpan expressions next to Peters is a riot!

  3. I think I will opt out of tomorrow's CAM session. I was on the fence for this weekend to begin with as I've been really busy. Have fun and stay safe. It does look like there are lots of options. I hope to see you all on the water soon.

  4. It's time for the Kittery Boat Show again!  NSPN members volunteer to help staff the MITA booth at the boat show each year.  It's a great opportunity to support MITA and get yourself to the boat show.  The boat show is April 1-April 3rd this year.  Erin Quigley is the membership manager and says they need volunteers for:

    Saturday 4/2 9 am - 1 pm or 1 pm - 5 pm
    Sunday 4/3 9 am - 1 pm or 1 pm - 4:30 pm
     
    Individuals who are interested can find more information about the show, and directions, here:  http://www.ktpevents.com/interior.php/pid/3  They can contact Erin for more information and to officially sign up for a shift:  erin@mita.org
     
     If your membership to MITA has lapsed you can renew at:  mita.org/renew    Select Membership Type "other" and enter $25. MITA gives NSPN members a discount as the usual membership dues is $45.  Leave the coupon code blank.  

      AND...as a volunteer at a booth you get an additional "exhibitors discount" on any item you purchase at the boat show, which usually is on sale and there's no sales tax!  So sign up directly with Erin at erin@mita.org

    Thanks!

  5. We will be posting here by 9:15 AM Saturday if the pool session will be canceled due to weather. Please check so you can plan accordingly!

    In the future we will also post by 9:15 AM on the day of the pool session if the pool session is cancelled. 

    Thanks!

  6. We hope to have a big turn out for our Cabin Fever Winter Break Out Party on January 30th at the Gould Barn.  To insure that we don't end up with dozens of delicious cookies and no main meals, please post here what you are planning to bring - either specifically or a category (ie vegetarian main dish).  We are a very talented group of paddlers who like to eat well with lots of great cooks among us!  If cooking isn't your thing or you have no time, store bought is also great - just come.  

    This year we will not be having the trivia contest but instead hope to have music as our entertainment.  Please bring whatever musical instruments you enjoy playing or sit back and enjoy others playing.  

    And...the raffle is shaping up nicely!

    See you there!
