Hi, Drifters!

This is your captain, David, speaking.

At last, we have come to the end of another season, although it was a bit short due to the weather. We certainly appreciated all the new and returning customers we had this year.

We are excited to share that we'll be continuing the tubing next year, and we look forward to another summer season with you all. Stay tuned for some new improvements that are in the works!

We wish to thank our workers, Shelley and Jeannie, for all their efforts to make Drifters Tubing a success, and another special thanks to my niece for running the page for us.

All the best for a great rest of 2025!

Yours truly,
Captain David

Hi, Drifters!

Our captain, David, is keeping a close eye on water levels in the Nashwaak right now.

As of Tuesday, August 12, we'll need to pause tubing operations until we get some rain - the water level is just dropping too low. Fingers crossed for rain soon!

On another note, we'd also like to ask that any weekend campers (any time this summer) please book by noon Tuesday of the week you'd like to go camping. This will ensure that we can have facilities (i.e., a Ready John) available for you! 😊

Thanks all - and hope to see you out on the Nashwaak soon!

It's almost tubing time!! 🤩 Secure your spot now by calling 506-447-8382!

If leaving us a voice mail, please give us your phone number loudly and clearly - our hearing isn't what it once was, lol! 😅 Repeating the number is helpful for us too and increases the chance of us being able to call you back.

We've had a couple missed connections lately - please call us again as we probably just couldn't decipher your number ☺️

Looking forward to seeing you all very soon!!

Who's ready for tubing season?? 🤠 Shouldn't be much longer now! While the river is still a little too high and a little too chilly for immediate bookings, we're taking advance bookings for the summer at 506-447-8382.

We're also still looking to hire on another helper or two for the summer - if you or someone you know may be interested, give us a call for details! 🙂

Happy Spring, Drifters!

As we start gearing up for our 15th year in business, we're interested in adding a new employee to our team to help out on busy mornings (any day of the week!) this summer.

This could be an ideal position for a mature student with their own transportation, or someone who otherwise has their mornings fully available throughout the summer.

For all inquiries or to be considered, please call Dave at 506-447-8382. Note that we cannot take applications or questions online.

Looking forward to tubing season!! 🤠

~A message from our captain, David~

Well Drifters, another summer has come and gone and we just want to say a huge THANK YOU to each and every one of you who supported our business this year. And what a summer it was - we're already looking forward to doing it all again next year!

On that note, while we'll be back, we wanted to give a special shout out to our friends over at Nashwaak tubing, who have recently announced their retirement after 25 summers in the tubing business. Wishing them all the best in whichever direction they go next!

To all reading this, we wish you a happy and healthy fall/winter season ahead, and we thank you again from the bottom of our hearts for another wonderful tubing season.

Last (but not least!) a very special thank you to Jeannie and my wife, Shelley, for all of your help around the table this summer, and to Rachelle for your help with the page.

All the best for now, Drifters, and see you in 2025!!

Weekday tubing, anyone? 🤠

Conditions are looking so good right now we're going to keep on going (Monday-Friday, weather permitting) this week! Give us a call at 506-447-8382 to book your weekday trip down the Nashwaak.

P.S. thank you to all our customers both new and returning who joined us out on the river this weekend! We had a great time with you all and hope to see you again soon ☺️

⏰️ Last minute weekend plans? ⏰️ We've got you!

River conditions are looking great and we've got a few openings left for tubing on both Saturday and Sunday this weekend. Why not get one last trip down the Nashwaak in before the end of the season? 😁 Give Dave a call at 506-447-8382 to book!

Friendly reminder that all appointments must be made by phone, and we're a cash only business. Hope to see you soon! 😎

Are you enjoying the 2024 tubing season as much as we are?? If you haven't been out on the river with us yet (or you'd like to go again!), it's not too late! 😄

To book your tubing or camping, call Dave at 506-447-8382. Don't be shy to speak up loud and clear when giving your details, as Dave notes sometimes his ears don't work as well as they used to! ☺️
