Mission
We are a non-competitive club dedicated to the promotion of whitewater recreation on campus. In short, our goal is to share Missouri's sublime Saint Francis River with a wide range of students in collaboration with the Missouri Whitewater Association. We travel around the country to paddle some of the best whitewater rivers in America. History
We were formed by a group of Saint Louis University students in 1995, and have been active within the Missouri whitewater community ever since. We have paddled in Missouri, Arkansas, Kentucky, Tennessee, and North Carolina, and past members have gone on to tackle some of the most challenging rivers around the world. Our "home river" is the Saint Francis River in Iron County, Missouri.

Fall Break 2024 Part 2: Nantahala + Lesser Wesser and the Ocoee! We are so proud of our new members and all the progress they’ve made so far this year. This amazing group of people, stunning fall scenery, and time on the river make the long drive and stinky, cold gear all worth it
