Stayton Bridge Ramp
Flotilla Launch time = 10:00 AM

In past years when we floated Stayton to Green's Bridge, we had options for some to take out at Shelburn Ramp (also known as Buell-Miller). If this is your choice, please let us know so I can let Bob Johnston know he should swing by on his way from Green's Bridge to Stayton to pick you up.

The other option is to arrange your own shuttle.

BOB JOHNSTON
will do the shuttle on May 3, 2025

Bob will be at the Green's Bridge ramp around 9:00 AM and will plan to leave the Green's Bridge about 9:30 AM to shuttle back to the Stayton Bridge Ramp for the 10:00 AM launch.

Bob will swing by the Shelburn Ramp for those who have request shuttle from Shelburn.

Unload your boat early at the launch site, then transport your trailer to your take-out point for a shuttle back to Stayton Bridge.
