QuietWaterSymposium.org The 21st Annual Quiet Water Symposium Greetings from Our Show Chairman Welcome Friends! The 21st Annual Quiet Water Symposium (QWS) brings together more and more people who have experienced the pleasure of pad- dling, hiking, cycling or one of the countless activities that make up outdoor recreation. Look around and you will see thousands of people, like yourself, here today to celebrate the joy of getting out… out of a building, out of a crowd, out of a rut, outside. The QWS Planning Committee proudly offers 33 presentations this year. They will again be led off by everyone’s favorite camping expert, Cliff Jacobson, who will present “Camping Secrets” on the Main Stage. One important camping skill is selecting a good campsite. In One Incredible Journey, Verlen Kruger wrote, “One of the highlights of most days was the delightful occasion of selecting just the right campsite. We always wanted a good place to land the canoe to unload and reload, and to secure it for the night. We wanted a high and dry, bug free spot, open to the breeze, a level spot for the tent, a sheltered convenient cooking spot, a safe place for a fire, stones for a fireplace and lots of available firewood.” Verlen Kruger is remembered each year when we present the Verlen Kruger Award. Since 2003, the award has gone to people who have taken the time to show others why they too would love to venture out. This year, the award will go to two remarkable people who have been tireless supporters of the Port Austin Kayak Symposium, the DNR Outdoor Adventure Center in Detroit and the Detroit Heritage River Water Trail. Please visit the Riverside Kayak Connection booth and congratulate our 2016 Verlen Kruger Award winners, Tiffany and Patrick Van DeHey. You have come today to learn about how to do more but also about how to give more. As the outdoors brings value to our lives, it also calls out from time to time when help is needed. We want the water we paddle to be clean and free flowing. We want the trails we walk to be free of litter, designed to prevent erosion and to lead us though healthy environments. Many of our over 130 exhibitors are dedicated to protecting the places we love and will gladly show you how to be part of the solution. All of our exhibitors have words of wisdom and knowledge to share that will let you see more, feel more and do more. QWS would not exist without our sponsors. Special thanks to our friends at MSU who have stood by us for 21 years to bring you the best possible symposium. Thanks also to Williams Subaru, who is again our “Main Stage Sponsor.” The Michigan Department of Natural Resources joins the QWS team and is a lead sponsor this year. Your attendance at QWS will continue to fund a program of grants administered by the Quiet Water Society. In 2015, a total of $9,000 was put back into communities to encourage outdoor recreation. You will find more details on these projects in the pages that follow. QWS is the work of a dedicated core of volunteers who have again given many hours to bring you the 2016 symposium. Some have served since the 1st QWS in 1996. Look for them in red vests and think about joining the team which will bring you the 22nd Annual QWS in 2017. Thanks for joining us today. Leave with the names of new places to explore, the email addresses of new friends with common in- terests, a renewed interest in taking the trip of a lifetime or maybe just a plan for a day that highlights the “delightful occasion of selecting just the right campsite”. Gary De Kock 2016 QWS Planning Committee Chair The Quiet Water Society Honors Great Stewardship The Verlen Kruger Award Verlen Kruger, a world record canoeist from Delta Mills, Michigan, was named “The River Guardian” at the 2003 Quiet Water Symposium. This was a heartfelt honor from the entire mid-Michigan paddling community. Ver- len was recognized for his outstanding achievements and records in paddle sports, for bringing international awareness to our environmentally sensitive waterways, and for fostering stewardship of our treasured water resources. As a further honor to Verlen, the award was named for him for subsequent years, becoming “The Verlen Kruger Award”. It is given annually to a person (or persons) who has supported and promoted paddle sports along with water conservation, education, or history in Michigan. The recipient of this award receives a commemorative paddle, and a brick on which the date and the name of the recipient is engraved. A duplicate brick will be added to the walkway around the Verlen Kruger Memorial located by the Grand River in Portland, Michigan. The recipient’s name is also en- graved on a plaque that is housed at the AuSable River Center in Roscommon, Michigan. This year, the award will go to two remarkable people who have been tireless supporters of the Port Austin Kayak Symposium, the DNR Outdoor Adventure Center in Detroit and the Detroit Heritage River Water Trail. Please visit the Riverside Kayak Connection booth and congratulate our 2016 Verlen Kruger Award winners, Tiffany and Patrick Van DeHey.

In addition, each member leads a subcommittee and puts in countless hours to bring you what we feel is a unique opportunity to come together to celebrate outdoor adventure. The members of this year’s Planning Committee are: Emma Bailey, Richard Bailey, Robin “Sweep” Barfoot, Doug Carter, Loretta Crum, Gary De Kock, Linda De Kock, Allen Deming, Mike Fila, Virginia Fila, Pat “Flipper” Harrington, Russ Hicks, Kathy Kulchinski, Jer- ry Link, Tim Machowicz, Tim Muhich, Jeff O'Boyle, Julie Powers, Rod Ritchison, George Stockman, Anita Twardesky and Gabriel Zawadzki. Without the original vision of Janet Gross and Dave McCune, 2005 Kruger Award winners, QWS would not have been launched back in 1996. The unselfish dedication of our Planning Committee members has maintained the Quiet Water Symposium’s fine tradition. This year is the 21st anniversary of the Quiet Water Symposium. Some members of our committee have served since the first symposium in 1996.

  • Győr, Hungary 11-13 September, 2015 Icf Canoe
    ICF CANOE MARATHON WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS BULLETIN No. 1. GYŐR, HUNGARY 11-13 SEPTEMBER, 2015 GREETINGS FROM THE MAYOR Győr has always been home to the training of sport icons: lots of champions have started their sports career or arrived to the top of it here. In the „City of Rivers” kayak and canoe competitors of Győr representing the most successful sport branch of Hungary have several times achieved smashing victories and classified very well in prestigious competitions. Upbringing of youth teams has always been a priority to Győr, so development in sportslife is unbroken here. Probably it is not just a pure coincidence that Győr can be home to such an important event in the kayak and canoeing sport for the third time, and also host to the first paracanoe competitions. I hope that our Guests will have time to discover the beauties of our City and have some days full of sports events and wonderful experiences. Zsolt Borkai Mayor BEFORE BREAKTHROUGH In 2015 the marathon canoe racing returns to Győr, the town of waters, where after 1999 and 2007 we can host the world championships in this discipline exceptionally already for the third time. The Hungarian canoe sport at the peak of its success is getting ready for the big shot, as we wish to organise the best ever marathon race in September, which marvels the whole world. The county seat of West Hungary really has excellent water features, the races run almost through the downtown area. And Győr is moreover a real sport town, where great many fans know and follow the events of the canoe sport and where full support is given to such big-scale events.

The purpose ofthis study was to evaluate the level ofservice quality within South African sport tourism and in the tourism industry in general, by focusing on a specific case study, the Berg River Canoe Marathon. The study discussed the importance of service quality within sport tourism, while the methods and instruments applicable to assess the level of service quality within sport tourism, were also addressed. The survey was conducted across selected viewpoints, which included the starting and the finishing points of the marathon. A total of 100 survey questionnaires were distributed to spectators and participants at the event using purposive sampling, while stratified random sampling was used to determine the viewpoints. The SERVQUAL dimensions were incorporated in the questionnaires as the basis to determine the level of service delivery at the event.
