The Alberta Whitewater Association was founded in 1972. The inclusion of canoe slalom in the 1972 Olympic Games prompted much excitement across Canada for whitewater paddling. The equipment has all changed since then, but the interest in whitewater paddling in Alberta has only grown through the years and can be seen by the number of paddlers on the water and the highest number of clubs of anywhere in North America!
The community has spoken. You care a lot about the Kananaskis! Over $15,000 donated to date to the crowdfunding campaign!
Thank you so much to all who donated! We look forward to a rejuvenated Kananaskis Whitewater Park in 2023.
