American Whitewater would like to recognize Todd Garland as our January volunteer of the month.
Since 2007 Todd has been the lead coordinator of the National Paddling Film Festival (NPFF) that takes place each Winter in Kentucky. This event attracts whitewater enthusiasts from all over that come to see the past year’s best in paddling-related films. NPFF and American Whitewater have a long history of cooperation including yearly contributions of some of the NPFF proceeds to AW that go a long way to supporting the AW mission. This partnership, and this popular festival, would not be where it is now if it weren’t for the steadfast efforts of Todd on its behalf.
Of course, any large event of this nature couldn’t exist were it not for the efforts of many people in addition to the leadership. So AW would like to extend their thanks to the many NPFF volunteers and the Bluegrass Wildwater Association as well.
In recognition of his efforts Todd will be receiving an OuterCore Long-Sleeve Shirt from Kokatat! Thanks Todd!
