SAVE THE DATE and come paddle with us in the calm backwaters of the Mississippi River at Riverlands Migratory Bird Sanctuary in West Alton, Missouri.

Try out your skills and learn how to safely paddle in a kayak or canoe, test your balance on a stand-up paddle board, or take a guided tour at this ACA-sanctioned event. Guests can enjoy complimentary lifejackets, safety boaters, and paddling tips.

More of a land-dweller? We’ll have plenty of onshore activities to enjoy: recreation outfitters, education booths, food vendors, and more!

Pre-Registration is required for paddling slots and is free of charge this year only thanks to support from the Mississippi River Network.
