Does anyone know if our club has affiliate club membership status with AW? If not I think we should. I know we all rely heavily on their river guides & gauges.

We have an affiliate membership in the American Canoe Association which we maintain in order to get their liability insurance for our training program.
American Whitewater has no such program but individual club members do maintain memberships in WA.
I am a member of ACA myself. Have not joined AWA yet, but have thought about it.
Well, they do have an affiliate program, but it does not provide sponsorship. Their focus is more on providing boater information, as well as lobbying for boater's rights. It appears to be just a club level donation / mark of support ($75). I think it would be a worthy donation on behalf of the club, and it would be nice to know our club actively endorses all the organizations protecting water access for boating.
