The WMIG is headed down to the Ocoee River in TN on Saturday, April 4th. We will be spending a half-day rafting down a scenic strech of river with 17 class III-IV rapids! We are meeting at Quest Expeditions at 10:45am and will be returning at 2:15pm. After the rafting, Dr. Dillman (from the Seneca Lakes Family Medicine Residency Program in SC) is leading a field workshop on water-borne pathogens and water purification. Most of us are heading down to car camp at the Chilhowee campgrounds in Cherokee National Forest on Friday afternoon. It is a 4.5 hour drive and folks are planning on carpooling. If Friday does not work for you, feel free to come down on Sat morning just for the rafting and workshop.
Cost for the rafting is only $27, with all necessary equipment provided by Quest Expeditions (our guide outfit). The workshop is free for WMIG members, $10 for non-members (or pay $20 dues and become part of the coolest club in med school)
