May was a very busy month for TVCC; not only did spring paddling kick off, but it was the month for the Spring Member Meeting.  This month’s newsletter contains lots of stories and photos about what we did in May, some of what we’ve planned for June, as well as some important information about being safe on the water, the upcoming Paddle School, possible regulation of paddle boating in the future and some intriguing stories from TVCC history.  Please check out all the great info about and provided by TVCC members.  As always, your stories and story ideas are welcome!
