@ Crabapple Whitewater

Join us for whitewater rafting on Thursday, August 4th on the Deerfield River in Charlemont, MA. Cost for the day is $50/person. Space is limited and will be given on a first come first serve basis. For more information or to reserve spots for your group, contact Tim Messenger at tmessenger@worcesterdiocese.org or at 508-929-4360.


Details of the Day

Transportation to and from Crabapple is the responsibility of each group. All groups should plan to arrive around 10:30am for an orientation and then spend a few hours on the water.  The day will conclude with a picnic late lunch/early dinner (food provided by Crabapple!) around 3pm and we will depart around 4pm or so. Groups should plan to eat an early lunch or snack before arrival!


How to Sign up

**Space is limited and will be given on a first come first serve basis.**

To sign up a group, contact Tim Messenger at tmessenger@worcesterdiocese.org or at 508-929-4360. All youth must register with a group. Any groups attending must have at least 1 adult for every 8 youth. Crabapple requires at least one adult in each raft (other than the guide). If possible, we would like any group chaperones to join for the rafitng. If any adult is uncomfortable or unable to raft, please let us know when signing up so we can make sure we have enough adults from other groups to fill the rafts. 

There is not an official deadline to sign up but our Diocesan group does have a limited amount of spots. Once our spots are full, participants will be placed on a waitlist. We did sell out our spots last year so sign up asap! If we do happen to not sell out our spots, we will release any leftover spots by June 28th and will not accept anyone after that point.

Youth and adult participants must fill out the Diocesan release as well as the Crabapple waiver form. Both will be sent out once a group registers.
