Calling all extreme kayakers!!!

Do you know all about the springs that feed the Truss section of the White Salmon? Do you know how the White Salmon will be affected once the dam is taken out? Do you know which type(s) of Salmon will be hitting you in the face as you go over BZ Falls? Well, if "no" is your answer . . . we hope to see you at the White Salmon Riverfest & Symposium 'educational' segment during the morning of May 30th to find out the answers.
