Keep Community Paddling Days Alive with Wave Train

Tax deductible
What is it about paddling that excites you the most? For us at Wave Train Kayak Team, it is building a connected community of kayakers and canoers and fostering a fun, inclusive, and safe way to get out on the river.

Last week, we completed our fifth season of hosting the eight-week Community Paddling Days series with the support of Altitude Art Gallery, Middle Fork Engineering, Amanda Weber Real Estate, and Northern Lights Trading Company. The Community Paddling Days are organized as informal, drop-in meetups that occur weekly at NO COST to participants. In 2024, Wave Train organized 16 CPD meetups with some regulars and some folks who attended once or twice, adding up to nearly 200 participation days (1 person for one day)!

Our sponsors cover 60% of the cost of these gatherings. We are reaching out to those of you who loved coming to the Community Paddling Days and those who love the idea of the CPDs to match the generous support of our sponsors so we can keep this going!

Wave Train Kayak Team is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization; donations are tax-deductible.

What did we spend money on this season to bring you the Community Paddling Days?

$6,000 for the coaching staff (2 to 3 staff members per session for 16 sessions)
$400 for fuel
Program Insurance
Vehicle Maintenance

Thanks to everyone who donated to the program during our spring Give Big Gallatin Valley fundraiser! Please join us again if you can!
