The Florence County Sheriff’s Office is reminding people of the dangers of fast river flows due to the large amount of rain fall this summer.
Please take extra precautions when canoeing, kayaking or tubing in local rivers. Wear your personal flotation devices and travel in groups so help is nearby.
Remember cellphone coverage is often poor along rivers due to the ravines that rivers follow.
Tell someone where you are going and when you plan to return, your route of travel should be discussed and a safety plan should be in place.
Thank You… the Florence County Sheriff’s Office.
