Brandywine Dam Run - May 9'th 
Modified By Tom Halladay  on 5/11/2008 10:23:27 PM)

Anyone interested in running the brandywine (Thompson's Bridge to Brandywine Park) tonight?   With all this rain it should be a really wild ride!   I'm thinking meet at the bridge around 6:15.  We may not have to run shuttle, as I think I can get us a ride back from the takeout.

Please call me ASAP if you are interested   302-293-3122

Also, the estimated level of the Brandywine at 6PM tonight is 4.5 @ Chadds Ford, PA.  So far it seems to be a bit shy of the estimated levels, which would probably put the level right at the Max American Whitewater suggested level of 4 feet (Thanks Bernie for pointing that out).  If it's any higher than that, we won't run it.

Bernie can be so helpful when he uses his evil  powers for good!


Remember, there is no gauge on the Muddy!
