Whitins Reservoir in Douglas.

We're going to try this again, looks like the weather will cooperate this time. This time we will portage over the road at the far end and into the other section of the reservoir, which is 2 or 3 times bigger than the section we paddled last Tuesday, so it should be a good paddle.

Tuesday, July 29th.

Meet at 6:00pm at the Whittier Farm Stand, 86 Douglas Road, Sutton, MA.

Directions from Worcester:
Take Rt 290 towards Auburn.
Rt 290 will turn into Rt 395.
Take Exit 4A (Sutton Ave, Sutton)
Follow for 2.7 miles.
Take right onto Douglas Pike (Whittier's Farm sign on corner. This is the third street on the right once you get onto Sutton Ave).
Follow Douglas Pike for 3/4 of mile to end of street.
Whittier Farm Stand is on the right.

Once everyone is there, we will all drive to the launch site (about 1 mile away).

In the water by 6:15. About 1 1/2 hour paddle.

    bring a bowl to collect blueberries from the bushes hanging over the shore! Pam and I did Moosehorn pond on Saturday and got a ton of blueberries just by kayaking under the bushes and pulling off the blueberries! I notices the fruits were ripe last Tuesday night! then of course, there is always kayak ball! Have ball will travel, the lst one with the ball pays for coffee. I am still trying to collect from Jim.

Who attended?

    •  Change of plans ... And it was Great. We paddled Lake Manchaug.... It was Wonderful, couldn't ask for a better early evening paddle!!!! Let's go again!!!!!! 
    •  This was a last-minute change in location. Turned out to be a great place for an after-work paddle! 
    •  Fabulous paddle. The water was smooth as glass, almost no boats and you couldn't ask for nicer weather. I loved it.
