Mission Statement
The purpose of the Idaho Whitewater Association, Inc. (hereafter, IWA) shall
be to promote the appreciation, understanding, and safe recreational use of the
whitewater river resources within the State of Idaho among its members and the
general public, and to inform the members of issues affecting whitewater rivers
and their use.
In essence, the IWA is for whitewater boaters, those with a passion and
experience and those that want to learn about that passion. The board of the
IWA is committed to notifying and educating our members and the general
public on:
- River Access
- Whitewater Safety Skills
- Any issue affecting the public use of Idaho’s whitewater river resources
The IWA is committed to working with other river
organizations and river agencies in a cooperative manner to enhance river
recreational opportunities for non-motorized river users. As Idahoans, we are
still amazed at the world class whitewater resources we have right in our back
yard. We encourage all Idahoans and people from around the nation to join our
non-profit organization. Please, take part in this effort to protect and promote
the safe use of our whitewater resources.
The IWA website and newsletter are a direct result of our commitment to getting
information to our members and the general public. Information and discussions
about river management issues will be closely monitored by IWA and will be
reported in the newsletter. The board encourages input from IWA members
regarding river issues and our handling and dissemination of information
concerning Whitewater Rivers in Idaho. Our Association is only as good as the
input we receive from our general membership.
