      Saturday looks miserable, so we’re moving setup to Sunday!

      Help run wire, paddle, & drink a beer with your paddling pals.

      Please check in at 10:00 am DST at the Millstream Gardens pavilion to help run wires for the 55th Annual MWC!

      IMPORTANT: Daylight Savings Time starts early SUNDAY (2:00 am) so set your clocks FORWARD 1 hour (“Spring forward”) on Saturday night – don’t be an hour late!

      Bring wire cutters, pliers, pocket knife, and leather gloves. Wear sturdy shoes for being on the rocks. Plan to wear bright clothes so you are easily seen across the river. Obviously, dress for the weather.

      If you are helping for the first time, team leaders will let you know how you can help. We are grateful for your help!

      If you are a returning helper and would like work on river right or ferry string across the river, please let us know ahead of time. Email: racedirector@missouriwhitewater.org

      After we finish with setup, hopefully around 1:00, there will be a slalom clinic on four or five gates. It is free for those who help with setup.

      Also, for all who help, we have the Silvermines Group Campground reserved for both FRIDAY & SATURDAY nights with complimentary camping. Be prepared for very cold weather camping! Beer deferred to Sunday afternoon.

      Please let us know if you have any questions. THANK YOU in advance!
