We had the pleasure of welcoming Annemarie Roberts and Anne-Marie Maheux, contest winners, and Katy England, staff writer of the Maine Edge, to raft and jump with us recently. You can read the whole article on the Edge website, but let us tell you first — it was a heck of a fun time!
It’s our greatest pleasure to welcome people who’ve never jumped OR rafted before and to expose them to the thrills and safety of these exciting sports. We particularly loved this line:
“Whitewater rafting is not like going to a theme park – it’s a river; there’s no lever that makes the ride stop … I quickly came to the conclusion that roller coasters, waterslides and other fun theme park rides are merely pale imitators of rafting.”
Thanks again to the Maine Edge for coming to raft with us — we hope we’ll see you again soon!

There’s only one word for life at the Forks this past week: Wicked Awesome! The warm weather has scared off the mosquitoes meaning we can all wear a little more comfortable clothing… especially for those who were at the Toga Party! The house was packed for Taco Tuesday, as the band “1 2 Many” came to rock the roof off.
This weekend were were graced with the Christopher Brothers, who joined us to kick off Karaoke nights and a rocking end of June party played by JC & The Pickups… prizes, giveaways, and beverages were enjoyed by all.
So what are you waiting for?! The best time of the year for rafting is NOW, and there’s plenty of food, drink, music, and white water fun to go around.
