SUMMARY:Wednesday Night Moving Water Practice
DESCRIPTION:6-7:30 pm\, through July 28\, Meramec River at 141\, Valley Park. This will be paddling as a group of common adventurers. Formal instruction provided.  You must have and bring all your own gear. \nCheck MWA FaceBook page. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nMeramec Greenway Arnold’s Grove Trailhead\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPublic  · Anyone on or off Facebook\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWednesdays @ Arnold’s Grove Trailhead/Meramec River: Moving Water Practice\nWhat/Where/WhenThis is MWA’s “moving water” training and practice sessions\, which will run every Wednesday (weather and river-level permitting) through July 29. If I am unavailable\, another ACA instructor will lead. (Keep an eye on this FB page for weekly updates.) Other ACA instructors and experienced volunteers will be there to help (more welcome!). Come once or every week. No need to pre-register. RSVP is appreciated. Signed electronic waiver required in advance of class. For current ACA members\, there is no charge for this event. For non-ACA members\, there is a $10 fee.\nPLEASE NOTE the location CHANGE for 2026 TO Arnold’s Grove Trailhead (Meramec River @ Hwy 141). This move is in cooperation with Valley Park. Thank you Valley Park!\nMeet at Arnold Grove Trailhead.\nAt 6:00 we will hit the water and paddle until 7:30.\nWe start off at a spot in the river with no current\, warming up with some sweep and forward stroke progressions\, a little bow draw work\, and then blending strokes. Then with current\, we practice peel outs\, ferries\, and eddy turns. If you are new to whitewater kayaking\, these moving water sessions are designed as your next step after learning basics in a pool or lake. If you are not new to kayaking\, these sessions can help you strengthen and refine your skills.\nEach session\, you must check in with the primary instructor (typically me) before getting on the water.\nWe will take as many participants as we have instructors and safety to support.\nIf you are “new to me\,” be prepared to wet exit or attest to your wet exit skills.\nFeesIf you are an ACA Member (join here https://americancanoe.org/)\, the program is free. If you are not an ACA member at the time of the event\, the cost is $10.\nWhile a membership in the MWA is not required\, we encourage you to join as your membership helps sustain our programs.\nWhat to BringYou must come with all of your own whitewater paddling gear including a whitewater boat\, helmet\, pfd\, spray skirt\, and air bags.\nIf you are with Team River Runner and want TRR to bring gear for you\, you must contact TRR by Tuesday night prior\, stltrr@teamriverrunner.org.\nWaiverBefore you can participate\, you must have signed the ACA Event Waiver with Missouri Whitewater Association selected when you are prompted to select a “Club.”\nWe will not have paper waivers at the river.\nSign the Event waiver once and you are good for all of our Wednesday sessions. In fact\, if you already signed the Waiver as an ACA Member for a 2026 MWA event\, you are all set! PM me to verify.\n\n\nContact Joe Sartori <paddlenut99@gmail.com>
