Paddlers-R-Us

Dear paddlers,
this website was originally intended for the Paddlers-R-Us email group, but has now taken a life of its own. Most of our current members are part of the "Dead Cow Society," the udderly serious paddling herd that could be seen floating down Mather Gorge in cow costumes during the 2009 Potomacfest (see video below). You are free to use this website to organize paddling trips, add pictures or videos, add comments, blogs, or trip reports, and discuss or trade gear ... or figure out what else we can do with this website.
