Sponsors
Kind souls who have helped with the trip.
Schlafly Beer
A St. Louis original, Schlafly Beer produces a variety of delicious hand crafted beers while staying very involved with the local community, including their support of homegrown artists and adventurers. Their donation of beer for the going away party was appreciated by all who attended, and the t-shirts they provided for the trip will help me proudly display our shared St. Louis roots.
Colin Maag
Colin and I have worked together at the St. Louis ARC for over 16 years, and he could easily be considered my “fairy godmother” of the trip. Colin lent me the canoe, paddles, dry bags, and assorted camping equipment to make it possible for me to even get under way. Being a paddling instructor at Meramec Community College, Colin taught me my basic strokes and gave me free use of his canoes whenever I wanted to practice. Thank you for your friendship and your help Colin.
Julie Fasbender
Quite the intrepid outdoors woman, but also an amazing graphic designer to boot, Julie designed the press release kit that will help us get the word out about the adventure. Long time friend and all around nice person, Julie freely donated her time and incredible skills in making a stunning press kit. Thank you, thank you Julie.
