About us
Team River Runner believes every disabled veteran deserves opportunities to embrace new challenges and experience camaraderie. We invite disabled military veterans and their families to participate in kayak training and on-water events, including whitewater and flat water. All programs are free. During the winter, our weekly indoor pool sessions led by experienced volunteers will help you gain confidence for all types of kayaking. Let us know if you would like to attend.
