Dedicated to whitewater rivers, WRRR members enjoy the rivers of the Northwest and British Columbia. In rafts, catarafts, inflatable and hardshell kayaks, SUPs, and Creature Crafts, WRRR is open to any whitewater enthusiast. Come join us on the river!
WRRR is a private whitewater boating club started in 1985. The club has members all over the Pacific Northwest. You can join WRRR with our Online Membership Application.
Upcoming Events
WRRR’s annual spring picnic will be moved back to Lake Ballinger Boat ramp in Mountlake Terrace. Come dial in your flip technique and bbq in style Sunday!
The Club BBQ is Sunday, April 28th. The fun starts at 11am, and there will be a potluck BBQ – the club will provide burgers, dogs, and a grill, and you can bring some goodies to share. We can also go over other river safety topics, like Z-drags and throwbag use, for anyone who is new to this or just wants some practice.
This is a great opportunity to get together with your boating friends and meet some new people, talk gear, and even plan trips. This is a fun and entertaining day on the lake.
Usually we start by sharing stories and flipping boats. Jim fires up the grill when people get hungry. Hope to see you there!!!

The Upper Clackamas is a fun and exciting whitewater run, and every year there is a big festival that brings in lots of boaters from all over. Covid-19 paused the celebration for a few years, but it’s back now, for what we think is the 38th Clackfest!
WRRR has stepped up our game prior to covid, with champions Shaun Heublein and Jay Cohen and many other award-winning performances. You can also get boat demos and get in a run or two on the river yourself.
