Chamber Field Trip: Crab Apple Whitewater Rafting

Skip the Small Talk & Grab a Paddle

Skip the boring bar room business card swap… our first Chamber Field Trip proves Franklin County leaders are all paddling in the same direction.

Introducing Chamber Field Trips
A new series of non-traditional networking experiences designed to help Chamber members expand their network and find more fun. 

First Stop: Whitewater Rafting with Crab Apple
On Friday, July 24, we're teaming up with Crab Apple Whitewater for a trip down the Deerfield River's Fife Brook section, one of Franklin County's signature outdoor adventures.

Bring the Office. Or Escape It. 
Spend the day discovering your own backyard.
Bring your coworkers.
Bring your whole team.
Bring your family (ages 8+).
Or just bring yourself. However you show up, you'll be in good company.

Yes. You Can Do This. 
Owners Frank and Jenn say the Fife Brook trip is great for first-timers and experienced rafters alike, with just the right mix of exciting rapids, calm stretches, great scenery, and plenty of photo ops to make your LinkedIn connections just a little jealous.

Rafter we wrap up on the water, we’ll share lunch and compare river stories before ending the adventure around 3:30PM.

Think of it as team building, local exploring, and networking...with a splash!
