The River Recreation staff has created the following protocols for the 2020 rafting season or until the CDC and/or Washington State health authorities declare it safe to return to normal operating procedures.
We Pledge:
- To NOT use the public endpoint/take-out facility but rather to only utilize our private headquarters as the endpoint to all our trips on the Wenatchee River.
- To provide private rafts for any booking of five or more guests.
- To disinfect and wash ALL river gear used on each trip completely and not reuse any PFD’s, Wetsuits, booties, and helmets for a 72-hour period (per the US Coast Guard’s recommendations).
- To provide private rafting orientation/training for each raft individually with your guide.
- To disinfect and clean surfaces such as doorknobs, counters, paddles, helmets, and river clothing prior to/after EVERY use.
- To provide multiple changing areas for guests to change into river gear.
- To provide multiple hand washing stations/ hand sanitizing stations.
- To completely disinfect all shuttle busses in between each trip.
- To not allow the general public to be present at our on-river basecamp – our basecamp is for our guests and staff only and not open to the public.
We ask our guests to pledge:
- If you have symptoms of Covid-19, please refrain from rafting (and other stuff too).
- Please arrive with your participation agreement completely filled out.
- Please arrive wearing your base layer (swimsuits) under your street clothes for ease of private changing.
- Please practice social distancing at all times, even in our parking lot.
We are thankful for the following:
- You! Our amazing guests that allow us to share our love for river rafting and the amazing staff who has committed to making your experience safe in every way.
- Our one-of-a-kind Basecamp on the Wenatchee River with all the versatility and social-distancing it allows us.
As the owner/operator of River Recreation, I believe that the safety and well-being of our guests and employees should always be #1, and I pledge to create sensible solutions in a world of uncertainty. Should you have any concerns or questions, please feel free to contact me using the information provided below. Thank you.
With Warm Regards,
