River Tip for Wednesday / Lady Bearcat Playoff Victory

River Tip: Remember we are making memories....not running a race...take your time and enjoy all the river has to offer... it may get lonely watching the river flow should you move faster than the Gordons think you outta...(waiting for pickup and transport back to town) Also, Jasper is really not that exciting when everyone else is still on the river... and just so you know, to my knowledge, the Ozark café has never run out of chicken fried steak.

Lady Bearcats: Congratulations on an important first round playoff victory over Lafayette. Way to go....Catch some of the action on CamptatumSports.com. We wish you continued success...as you defend your State Title.

Iron Men River Tip For Tuesday, April 15

River Tip of the Day: Experience teaches the Iron Man to never let his guard down…because he has learned that it’s not the rapids that will get him…for in those areas he is remains vigilant…but rather it’s the relatively calm waters…where his focus is lost… that his potential for flipping rises… therefore, Iron Men who Stay dry…Stay focused.

River Tip for Monday, April 13

Iron Men, as you head down the river...should you hear banjo music start to play...."PADDLE FASTER".......

Latest River Tips - For the new "wannabe" Iron Men

The Staff of Camp Tatum Travel in an effort to assist our first timers in their transition to Iron Man status have come up with some daily river tips during the week immediately preceding our departure.....the following are some that have already been given:

River Tip: Should you take a tumble....wear something light & quick drying.....

River Tip: When you are approaching a narrow rapid...do not bunch up...Iron Men do not do well together in narrow spaces....generally you will find ... it's every Iron Man for himself...and they will delight in surviving the rapid while watching you tumble...


River Tip: On the River Iron Men will enjoy some beautiful country and have the opportunity of seeing various creatures of God’s creation…but Iron Men learn to contain their excitement and guard their tongue…before exclaiming…”look at that flock of eagles”….because they know their fellow Iron Men will be unforgiving when it comes to “faulty creature identification”…ie. Buzzards rather than eagles…..

River Tip: On the trip to and from the river…should there be a need for conversation…ask your driver about the Elk they released on the ridge several years ago…then sit back and enjoy the ride.

River Tip: Bring a lawn chair…some of our most exciting times...involves counting how many times the local girls pass up and down main street…trying to get a glimpse and interact with our boys…..Nighttime in Jasper, it just doesn’t get any better!

Stay Tuned....more daily postings on the way.
