Fellowship - 2013 Mens Biking and Kayaking Trip

On Saturday, June 1st, ten of the church’s men embarked on a men’s outdoor trip. We met at the church parking lot at 7:45 a.m. and car pooled to Greenock (near McKeesport). At Ted’s Peddlers Village, we picked out our bikes and road up the bike trail to Buena Vista. At Buena Vista, we meet the staff from Ted’s Peddlers Village and switched our bikes for kayaks. We began paddling downstream on the Youghiogheny River. This section of the Yough alternates from sections of moving water with some ripples to sections of pools. Even though we were less than ten miles from McKeesport, this section is fairly undeveloped with only a few houses and docks. After about an hour of paddling, we stopped at an island and had lunch. After lunch, we got back in our boats and paddled to the takeout at Ted’s Peddlers Village. The weather was great and everyone enjoyed the day outside.
