SYLVA–In its August issue,
Backpacker Magazine names Sylva a “top town to raise a kayaker”.
Writes Jason Stevenson:
A virtual nest of rivers with every class of rapids a kid (or parent) could want, Sylva is home to American Whitewater Association.
The same issue names the country’s top 25 cities in which to raise an “outdoor kid”, and three area towns make the cut: Asheville, Brevard and Sevierville.
