Volunteers are hard at work getting ready for the 2001 Gauley Festival to take place this coming Saturday.
American Whitewater Board Members Joe Greiner, Kara Weld, Sherry Olsen and Tom Christopher
hard at work on issues affecting whitewater paddlers across the country.Volunteer AW Directors from all over the US are in meetings this Thursday and Friday to make the decisions that will determine the direction of the only organization working solely on whitewater.
AW Board Member Tom Christopher was instrumental in gaining the recent victory for releases on the Kennebec River in Maine.
AW Executive Director Risa Shimoda is not lying down on the job but rather resting her cracked vertebrae
suffered last Thursday running Great Falls on the Potomac.
Thanks to all of the AW Board and Staff helping to make this year’s Gauley Festival the biggest whitewater party in the world!
Don’t miss it – come to Summersville,WV and see for yourself.
