Berri Kayaking Group Instructions: 19 Oct 2021

Hi Paddlers,
This week and next we again plan to launch from the Sawmill Creek regulator while the managed
inundation (environmental watering) is at it’s peak. Wonderful conditions for paddling Sawmill Creek
and adjoining creeks.
We will be meeting at the Sawmill Creek regulator at 5.25pm.
If you’re happy to take other paddlers there in your car please let us know by text and we’ll forward
to you the name and phone number of a person/s looking for a lift.
PLEASE CAREFULLY FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS – JUST USING GOOGLE WILL PROBABLY LEAD YOU IN
THE WRONG DIRECTION TO A CLOSED ROAD.
Allow at least 25 minutes to drive there from Berri.
