July 4th

July 4th

Borchers celebrated the day by providing canoe trips to so many wonderful families. The staff participated in the ritual "empty rack dance".



We had the privilege of having Andy & Kay stay with us. Andy is a U.S. citizen from Hungary. He had to hike, swim across a bay, and take many other risks to get here. He chose America! His story made us all grateful for the pure luck of being born an American. We should never take our birthright for granted.

Andy & Kay have spent many summers in the area and Andy took Kay to explore all of his old fishing haunts.


We were so busy!
By the end of the day,
the staff had to cool down
in the river.
Some went willingly,
some not so much.



The "blonde one" & the "brunette one" didn't stand a chance of
staying dry after such a busy day!
On July 5th more families and friends came to canoe. Allie got her first chance to drive for Borchers, shuttling people back from Burton's Landing.





Mercedes enjoyed the week-end, but all that fun makes for a tired puppy!
