Colorado Whitewater Association is proud to announce our Guest Speakers for the Spring Dinner 2012!
Author, actor, climber, kayaker, bicyclist, paraglider, skier, teacher, coach, motivational speaker, reality tv star, humanitarian. World Class Athlete. World Class Adventurer. But perhaps best known for the one thing none of us would ever
consider: being blind. Most famously, on May 25, 2001, Erik Weihenmayer became the only blind man in history to reach the summit of the world's highest peak - Mount Everest. His kayaking conquests are numerous and locally include Waterton Canyon, sections of the Arkansas River, the Colorado River and the Poudre. Also, many rivers in Morocco, and most recently in Southern Mexico including the Usumacinta River, waterfalls of Busiljá.
Plus, we welcome from Team Jackson - Stephen Wright!
Accomplishments: Keener Program Head coach, 3-Time US National Freestyle Champion, 3rd World Championships 2009, US Freestyle team member 2009 & 2011 and 2011 Pan American Champion. His kayaking accomplishments will boggle your mind!
