Paddlesports: Canoe - Kayak - SUP - Raft - Rescue...and FUN!
The American Canoe Association (ACA) is a member based, national nonprofit organization serving the broader paddling public by providing education related to all aspects of paddling; stewardship support to help protect paddling environments; and sanctioning of programs and events to promote paddlesport competition and recreation (aka FUN!).
The heart of the ACA is the people who paddle, cherish, protect, and enjoy the diverse waterways of America.

Paddlesport Statistics
The U.S. Coast Guard has just released it's annual Recreational Boating Statistics Report.
The report states alcohol use was the leading contributing factor in fatal boating accidents; it was listed as the leading factor in 17 percent of the deaths. In addition, almost 71 percent of all fatal boating accident victims drowned, with 84 percent of those victims not reported as wearing a life jacket.
Learn more online in the ACA's Paddlesports Statistics resource area.

In order for the ACA to continue to support, promote, and grow paddlesports, we rely on membership dues, grant funding, and support from paddlers just like you.
Now, you can donate to a specific paddlesport program area: Education, Stewardship, Competition or Adaptive Paddling. Thank you for your consideration. |
