SDCKA 'WEAR IT' Campaign
- Lifejackets save lives
- Join the effort and lead by example, ALWAYS wear your lifejacket!
Thanks to a grant from the National Safe Boating Council, SDCKA printed and installed 50 signs placed at area boat ramps along most of the MNRR (Missouri National Recreational River), Big Sioux River and some area lakes. Generally the signs are located in or near; Brandon, Mitchell, Pierre, Sioux Falls, Vermillion, Watertown and Yankton.
If you know of a location that would benefit from a sign, email sdcanoekayak@gmail.com
