More than just rafting trips- FUN ON AND OFF THE RIVER

Dear Jon and Nancy,
I want to take a moment and ask that you recognize your outstanding staff. I was there in June and, because of them, had a BLAST and came back in August with two additional family members.

Wonderful Stacey picked us up at the airport (Lucky Us)! She is a hard worker and yet she remains cheerful, helpful and keeps us laughing.

Peter? What can I say? And our rafting guide, Patrick, is an amazing guy.  Both my girls have crushes on him and he really kept us safe and sound.

This staff has to put up with folks from all walks of life, feeding them and seeing them through the night as well as on the river. People expect to be catered to when on vacation and they can be unreasonably demanding. You've chosen your staff well and they are well-suited to their tasks.

I've run an office, a law firm, as well as other businesses (other than my own) and I hope you truly appreciate these folks: Stacey, Peter, Patrick, Tania and everyone you have at American Whitewater. Give them all a Bonus! See you next year!

Lisa
