About Team River Runner
Founded in 2004 at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, we now offer weekly paddling sessions in more than 60 locations across the nation. Team River Runner (TRR) is more than an adaptive sports program; it is an opportunity for veterans, their family members, and everyone in the community to participate It’s an opportunity to enjoy nature and realize its social, physical, and emotional benefits, whether it’s tackling whitewater rapids or paddling on peaceful flat-water. It’s an environment that facilitates connection, allowing veterans to reunite with their families and forge relationships with those who have endured similar pain. TRR creates purpose and community service. Our veterans are on the river to recovery.
TRR provides all boats, outfitting, safety gear, instruction, transportation, food and lodging for the participants and the volunteers through the generosity of their donors and the subsidies from their providers.
Contributions to TRR help us give the gift of kayaking to those who have fought for our country and have returned home physically and/or emotionally injured. Contributions are used to support programs and leadership clinics, purchase equipment, provide meals, transportation, and other items necessary to ensure that every servicemember, and their family members, who want to experience adaptive paddling adventures has the chance to do so.
