Another River Rescue

The Big Darby Creek can be very dangerous.

Rangers at Battelle Darby Creek once again assisted the local fire department and other agencies in their efforts to rescue two canoeists who capsized in the Big Darby Creek last night.  One individual was able to immediately get to shore, while the other was found downstream a half hour later.

Please wear your life vest or personal flotation devices.
Do not mix alcohol and paddling.
Let family friends know your plan (put in and take out points) and how long you expect to be on the creek.

Please be mindful of the dangers of rivers during high water levels.
