The Facebook page does NOT replace or supersede the main RICKA website, or flatwater, whitewater, and sea kayaking message boards. RICKA.org and its message boards are still the primary source of club news, upcoming trips, and especially RSVP'ing for trips. PLEASE DO NOT use the Facebook page as a means to formally RSVP to any trips or as the primary means of announcing any new trips. The Facebook page can certainly be used as a reminder of an upcoming trip or as a friendly notice to your friends that you'll be at a certain trip, but should not become the primary place for such info. The reason for this is to maintain the RICKA site for all information and to keep it all in the one place it has always been. Not all our trip leaders are on Facebook and this will keep the trip leaders sane! The main purpose of the Facebook page is purely for entertainment purposes and hopefully some additional marketing and membership for the club.
Please feel free to post pictures from trips, comment about trips, etc. Also feel free to suggest the page to other members and to friends.
Susan Engelman and myself are the administrators for the Facebook page. If there are any problems, issues, or questions please do not hesitate to contact one of us. Both of our email addresses are available via this message boards by clicking on the envelope icon next to our names. Our email addresses are also listed in The Paddler newsletters.
Thanks,
Andy
