Trips Committee Activities Oct 2019 (rev. Oct 2022)
To support an active program of ca. 125 trips a year. we need to:

- Train TCs – in Feb & ongoing - enable them to use the Website
- Assure trips every week – assist TLs (suggest which rivers, safety)
- Keep CCA website (Trips section) up to date – Train TLs in how*
- Send Notice of "10 Days Upcoming Trips" to all CCA members each Tues
- Follow up, assure that each trip occurred, safety issues & Trip Reports are posted
- Advertise trips program by articles in the Cruiser
- Cross-List Trips w/ BRV & post theirs on CCA Calendar
- Answer incoming messages on the Trips@canoecruisers.com
