Attend our 2 day kayaking skills clinic.  This is the ACA ERK (Essentials of River Kayaking) curriculum where you will learn all about paddling on big rivers.  We teach you all about equipment and gear, paddling strokes, river hazards, rescue maneuvers, useful technology options, and marine radio communications.  After this class you will have the confidence to paddle with us or others on big rivers.  This class also prepares you for the ACA L2 Kayak Instructor Certification class should you choose to move on to the next level.  Interested or have questions?  Contact us at Board@MississippiRiverWaterTrail.org
