Saturday I traveled down to the outdoor campus in Sioux Falls to attend the SD Canoe and Kayak Association annual meeting. The speakers included Steven Dahlmeier, President SDCKA, Greg Latza & Erin McManus with a trip report of the White River. We heard from Tony Keller speaking about his book, Camping & Cooking with the Bare Essentials. After a short business meeting Team River Runner gave us the lowdown on how they are helping disabled vets through kayaking. Tim Cowman - Director, USD Missouri River Institute gave a great presentation on the Missouri River Flood of 2011: Causes, Impacts, and Post-Flood River Management. Finally Jarett Bies & Steven Dahlmeier gave us an update on the South Dakota Kayak Challenge.
there is more information on the speakers and links to their sites if you follow the link in the side bar to the SDCKA. Overall a good day and well worth the trip down there.

First Post
Hello and welcome to the Big Sioux Yacks. As a new enterprise I am not sure what direction this will take. If you are interested in kayaking around the Watertown SD area, this is a good place to ask questions and who knows, someone might want to come along. New contributors are welcome to share their paddling stories and trip reports. Just leave a comment and I'll see if I can figure out how to make that happen.
