American Whitewater and MeetingOne Teleconferencing Partner to Conserve and Protect Whitewater Rivers

MeetingOne Corp., a leading provider of advanced business teleconferencing services and American Whitewater, the nation’s leading advocate for the protection and restoration of whitewater river resources, announced they have entered into a partnership that will benefit America’s whitewater rivers.

“The partnership offers American Whitewater members access to the services of MeetingOne,” notes Risa Shimoda, AW Executive Director. “A percentage of revenue from every conference goes towards conservation and protection of whitewater rivers and river access. All AW members will qualify for the program! This is a win-win for AW, our members, and MeetingOne!”

“The benefits of this partnership are available to over 8,000 members of American Whitewater,” said Crash Lowe, Account Executive who initiated the partnership. “The funds generated by this program will support future generations of paddlers, who will be able to enjoy our great whitewater rivers.”

Since 1954, American Whitewater has focused on river conservation, protection of access and is the steward for safety preparedness for those who enjoy rivers and the outdoor experience. With 8,000 members and 160 affiliate clubs AW represent over 80,000 paddlers nationwide. Visit AW at www.americanwhitewater.org, for more information about American Whitewater and its supporters.
