Stream Teams United receives MTN DEW Outdoor Grant

---

We are excited to share some big news this week: Stream Teams United is one of forty nonprofits to win a $5,000 grant through the MTN DEW Outdoor Grants program! Awarded in support of our ongoing commitment to the outdoor experience, the grant reinforces the important work we are doing to host four educational river adventures in our Paddle MO 2022 programs. Over the past 18 months, more and more people have been gravitating towards outdoor activities, creating a greater need for volunteer efforts and funding to promote expanded conservation, education, and restoration. It’s crucial that we all do our part to protect and preserve the lands we love and enable people to continue to get outside. The funds and ongoing support of Paddle MO partners go a long way to help us provide the best educators and support crew for our Paddle MO river adventures. #MTNDewOutdoorGrants #GreatRiversState #PaddleMO

Thank you to the Stream Team volunteers, partners, and sponsors, who assist as our Paddle MO crew, as we move into 2022 and continue to work towards hosting these one-of-a-kind river adventures in our #GreatRiverState!

Hear what past participants have said about their Paddle MO experience:

• "The trip that landed magic in my heart and soul" 
• “Paddle MO was an amazing experience. I was intimidated by a river the size if the Missouri, but the support and knowledge from other participants and staff built my confidence and by lunch on day 1, I was relaxed."  
• "Best paddle of my life...so far! Loved every minute of it. Loved all the leaders and volunteers. Best trip EVER!"
• "An amazing ecosystem far beyond anything I ever dreamed of"
• "My expectations were exceeded and now I am a better paddler and person; Thank you for all your time and effort, passion, commitment. Truly evident and I’m so appreciative of all your team dues to cherish, protect, and preserve our rivers."
