2018 Sioux Empire Paddlers Raffle


Time for Whitewater in Sioux Falls South Dakota


WIN ME!!

Sioux Empire Paddlers are running a fundraiser for our whitewater (River Revitalization) project. A few years ago we had River Restoration from Carbondale Colorado come up and provide us with a feasibility study for a whitewater park. Information from the feasibility study helped us make the decision where to pursue the possibility of a whitewater park in Sioux Falls. We raised enough money in our 2016 raffle to have a Conceptual design made. Now we are working on getting the rest of the funds for engineering, permits, and all designs.
