      Guys will spend the night at my place and the ladies can spend the night at Mrs. Sarreddine's house. (she will provide the Mateh).
    • Saturday the 18th, we drive to the beautiful DESHUTES river and take an 18 mile rafting trip (few hours) then we camp on the river (eat, drink, talk, dance, and have a great time).
    • Sunday the 19th, we can play it by ear, maybe go for a hike or something. then drive back to Portland, drop people off at airport, (kiss, hug, cry and promise each others we will stay in touch).
  • What to bring : any outdoor equipment you may have( derbakeh, gitar, oud, arabic music, and oh yeah, tents, sleeping bags, etc).
  • Cost : We're going to try to keep the cost to a minimum considering how much everyone just spent at the convention, the rafting trip costs about $55 per person ($50 if we have 10 or more people), then add $20 or $30 for food and camping stuff. and some spending money for Friday night.
  • What would be great : to get ASAP Responses whether It's Yes or NO (yes is better) so we can make reservations, also those who are coming, please let us know what kind of camping stuff you have, we might have to rent few things.
