ASCI 2008 Community Days

Throughout the season, Garrett and Allegany County residents are invited to raft with a guide or kayak with their own equipment (or equipment rented from ASCI) at deep discounts on special community days.  One hour rafting trips are priced at $15 and private boater passes are $5.00.  Reservations are encouraged.  On these high demand days, ASCI sells out quickly.  Upcoming dates are as follows:

Wednesday July 16
Wednesday August 27
Friday September 19
Sunday October 12
