Currently 71˚F, overcast and breezy. Enjoy

We need to unite and show our support for the river revitalization in down town. we need people to make sure the city understands that a “tubing or float park” is not the same thing as a Whitewater Recreation Area. We’ve been working to educate the city and those involved, but we are now at a point where we need to show major public support for a Kayak Whitewater Park downstream of the college bridge. The city is already going to do work in the river in this area and could incorporate a Whitewater park if pushed a little. There will be a major positive impact economically from a true whitewater park that will not occur from a tubing park, however we need your support.

Please add June 26th from 4-7 pm on your calendar and plan to support the construction of a recreational area in our downtown for children and adults alike!

To my local district member,

I simply wanted to express my desire for a Kayak Whitewater Park downstream of the college bridge over a tubing or float park. The creation of a Whitewater Park will not only improve our town and community, but will also bring in revenue from events and tourism.

Please represent my voice supporting a Whitewater Kayak Park to the city.

best,
