That's right, if you're an ACA member, you can join the ACA staff on incredible paddling excursions in 2012.
In cooperation with the host organizations, you will be able to paddle with representatives from the ACA National Office, creating a better connection with those working daily on your behalf. In addition, a percentage of each registration fee goes directly to support the on-going efforts of the ACA on behalf on all paddlers to fulfill our mission of Education, Stewardship, Recreation & Competition.
