Our chapter covers the geographic region of Buffalo River watershed and all surrounding counties. Our area of the state features some excellent paddling opportunities for on the nation’s First National River, whitewater, gentle moving streams, and lake recreation.

All year around, our members are on the water doing different things such as - pool sessions, day tripping in canoes and kayaks, canoe camping, fishing, teaching canoe, kayak and river safety and rescue, river cleanup, or just enjoying being on the water with friends.

In the spring and winter seasons, the Ozark Mountains provide some of the most reliable and exciting whitewater in the Midwest, with something for every paddler.

And that's what our club is all about - getting together with great people of all skill levels and interests who love to paddle the streams and lakes of the Ozarks! There are currently about 50 members in our area affiliated with the Buffalo River Chapter, and our monthly meetings and regularly scheduled events, such as pool practice sessionsl, provide an opportunity to get to know and hang out with local paddlers.
