6:30 Doors open and Gear Swap set-up. Bring your unused boating or camping gear to swap or sell to other paddlers. We suggest that 10% of the purchase price go to Fairbanks Paddlers.
7:00 Potluck Dinner. If your name starts with a letter from A to Z bring food! A roast turkey will be provided.
7:30 Short Business Meeting. We’ll review the year’s activities and elect board members.
8:00 Program! Roman Dial will come up from Anchorage and present “Four Decades of Packrafting: A Personal View.” Roman was one of a small group of boaters to take packrafting very seriously early on and to really test what this new kind of craft could do. He’ll bring early pictures, stories, and maps. He may also read some sections from his book, “The Adventurer’s Son,” forthcoming in February.
