Suwannee Canoe Trip
2017-07-29 - 2017-07-30 | Spirit of the Suwannee Music Park, 3076 95th Drive, Live Oak, FL, 32060, United States
Princesses and Braves, get your big Braves (and Big Tau’s too, this is a family trip for anyone interested). Once again it is time to load the dugouts for a trip way down upon the Suwannee River. We will meet up on Saturday July 29, 2017 at 9:30 am at the Canoe Outpost at Spirit of the Suwannee Music Park. We will paddle down to the Holton Creek River Camp where we will spend the night, grilling the gifts of the Great Spirit, and enjoying fellowship. In the morning we will paddle to Gibson Park where the folks from Canoe Outpost will pick us up and take us back to our vehicles. We are usually back at the Canoe Outpost and headed back to Jacksonville no later than 2 p.m. Best news: No upstream paddle this year!!!
The facilities at the river camp include, fresh water (a little sulphuric, good for washing not so good for drinking), flushing porcelain, and hot water showers. There are screened and roofed sleeping platforms for the first 40 people who register. After that you need to bring a tent. I will let you know beforehand if you need to bring a tent if you are after the cut-off.
The Federation will provide the charcoal and lighter fluid for the state park style grills. You bring your meat of choice and any sides and drinks, and don’t forget something to flip your meat. Foil wrapped pre-cooked baked potatoes do not take long to reheat in the coals. Breakfast is your choice. I always bring a camp stove and a big pot for boiling water. And I will have percolator coffee, with sugar and cream for the morning coffee drinkers.
Pack light. Everything you bring has to fit in your boat and be carried up a lot of stairs. If you bring it, it will probably get wet. Things can change, but the river has been a little lower than usual and may require more paddling than prior years.
Cost is as follows:
Rent a boat from CO:

$75 to rent a canoe, minimum 2 per canoe at $37.50 each.
$20 for the third person in a boat.

Bring your own boat:

$20 per person.

The cost covers boat rental, gratuity for the drivers, charcoal, and lighter fluid.
Please download a liability waiver required for each person. Completing it at home and bringing it with you will speed up our departure.

The Timucuan Longhouse would like to invite all tribes and members (and also moms!) to the 2017 SQM Family Campout, which will be held January 27-29, 2017 again at the Ocala Wildlife Conservation campground. The campground, adjacent to Ocala National Forest, is about a 45 minute drive southwest from St. Johns County to south of Palatka near the west bank of St. Johns River. The venue is outstanding having campsites but also some cabins, bunkhouses, and terrific facilities including the Gazebo and Great Hall. The restrooms and showers have been modernized. Last year, at Ocala, we were fortunate to enjoy excellent camping weather during Florida wintertime.
Planned events are expected to include archery and bb-guns at the range and some time on the lake in canoes. There should also be a critter race, spirited tugs-of-war, and zip lining. Once again, the highlight of the campout will be The Fed Feast dinner Saturday evening. Last year, we enjoyed some outrageously good BBQ including ribs, brisket, pork loin, and more. After the Feast, we plan to enjoy an amazing pyrotechnics show. Later, a dance will be held in the Great Hall.

Native Sons and Daughters is a parent and child organization. We are a non-profit organization focused on building a lifelong bond between parents and their children. Unlike most other organizations, we keep both parent and child active together through small group (Tribe) activities and large group (Nation) activities.
Native Sons and Daughters programs are most active during the school year. Each fall we open our doors to the public and host a series of informational open house events where prospective members can hear about the programs from active members, both parents and children, and get answers for any questions they might have.
We understand time is valuable and lives are busy so we plan a variety of events to help you enjoy quality time with your child. The more you participate, the more memories you will build. The Native American theme serves as a common level of interest between parent and child not only to learn about that culture but to reinforce family values.
