Understanding of Risk

Careful reading and understanding  of the Arkansas Canoe Club Waiver and Release of Liability is required for everyone taking part in Arkansas Canoe Club's School of River Paddling. Signing the waiver is your acknowledgment that you understand the terms of the waiver and that you fully accept responsibility for the serious risks and dangers inherent in whitewater paddling. Parents or legal guardians must co-sign with those under the age of eighteen.

Waivers and other required documents will be emailed to the email associated with the registration as we get closer to the actual event.

Your registration to the school is not final until we receive these documents!
