Chuck Williams: First run at whitewater has drawn 7,500 rafters | Chuck Williams | Columbus Ledger Enquirer

Quick, take a guess.

How many folks have gone whitewater rafting in Columbus this summer? Quick, now.

The new Chattahooche River course that runs into downtown Columbus has been open for eight weeks and Decatur, Ga.-based Whitewater Express has been running high- and low-flow guided tours during that time.

Time’s up.

More than 7,500 people have taken excursions on what is billed as the world’s longest urban whitewater course, paying $32.50 for low-flow runs and $48.50 for high flow.
