I just came down for the Memorial Day weekend and I have to say that the employees at Rivermen couldn't have made it a more pleasurable experience. From the general goodhearted friendliness to the curbside fire wood delivery, I want to say that it just doesn't get much better than that. The real pleasure was dealing with those circus animals you call rafting guides. From Robert C with his bad jokes that made even the most hung over person laugh to the guide who gave us a heck of a ride Nugget aka Nick. Not only I, but we as a collective group can say that the experience we had on the river that day was all do to the expertise, wherewithal, leadership, and downright fularious antics of Nick. I want to come back down as soon as I possibly can and ride the Gauley and the guide I want taking me down those class fives is Nick. Anyways, we all had a blast, so thank you for a supurb weekend. There was no better way to spend Memorial Day weekend then with the people of Rivermen.Cheers,Steve Euga
