It was a summer to renovate our commitment to the intellectual, academic, and personal growth of young leaders and maintain the unity of our learning community as “one program on three sites.” It was also a summer to honor the past and reconnect our alumni’s achievements with the bright future of many new generations to be served by the GSP. On June 13, more than 1,100 scholars—both past and present—all gathered together on Centre College’s campus for Alumni Day. Although Alumni Day has been a recurring event on our three campuses, for the first time this year we united the scholars in one place to meet with GSP alumni who have become leaders throughout our Commonwealth.

    1 Segment 5 Crooked River/St. Marks Refuge Emergency contact information: 911 Franklin County Sheriff’s Office: 850-670-8500 Wakulla County Sheriff’s Office: 850-745-7100 Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission 24-hour wildlife emergency/boating under the influence hotline: 1-888-404-3922 Begin: St. George Island State Park End: Aucilla River launch Distance: 100-103 miles Duration: 8-9 days Special Considerations: Extreme caution is advised in paddling open water areas from St. George Island to Carrabelle and in paddling across Ochlockonee Bay. Introduction From traditional fishing communities to wild stretches of shoreline, tidal creeks and rivers, this segment is one where paddlers can steep themselves in “Old Florida.” This is also the only segment where paddlers can follow two scenic rivers for a significant distance: the Crooked and Ochlockonee rivers. The Crooked River is the only area along the trail where paddlers have a good chance of spotting a Florida black bear. Several hundred black bears roam the Tate’s Hell/Apalachicola National Forest area, one of six major black bear havens in the state. Florida black bears are protected under Florida law. Keep food and garbage tightly packed and hanging in a bag from a tree branch at least ten feet off the ground. In paddling the Crooked River paddlers will enjoy a slice of the untrammeled 200,000- plus-acre Tate's Hell State Forest. This scenic route also features Ochlockonee River State Park where there is a full-service campground a short distance from the water. For camping reservations, visit Reserve America or call (800) 326-3521.
