About

Our Mission

Women Who Kayak was developed as a community for women to come together and share their favorite kayaking experiences and tips, to develop friendships, and participate in events that help preserve our precious waterways.

In the summer of 2019 we co-hosted events with the Milwaukee River Keepers and the Milwaukee Rowing Club for their spring cleanup and chatted with Plastic-Free Mke and their initiatives to keep our waterways and environment clean. We plan to continue collaborating, planning paddling events, and supporting our members and the environment any way we can!  

Our Goals

There are so many benefits of kayaking including the comradery formed when paddling with friends, the health boost received from a low impact sport, and improvements to your mental health and feeling more connected to nature, appreciating its beauty, and respecting it enough to help keep it safe and clean. 

We aim to provide the knowledge, tips, and connections to help members paddle safely, while collaborating with organizations that champion environmental awareness and events.
