Featured Adventures
Join us on September 19-21, 2025 for fall Palmer River Festival! River Fest is an exciting weekend event featuring instructional clinics, camping, live entertainment and vendors as a fundraiser for support Paddler Co-op’s youth programs and to help burn the mortgage on our recent property purchase.

The recent changes have affected many of us and we are doing our best to keep Paddler Co-op thriving. We are asking for support from our community!
