SUMMARY:Stand Up Paddleboard surfing lessons
DESCRIPTION:Surfing lessons at Siloam Springs Kayak Park! These lessons will be on Tuesday evenings throughout the summer in 2023. It’s strongly suggested to take an ACA L2 SUP lesson first.

Trimming the board\, Crossing eddy lines\, peel outs & surfing the wave.\nNWA is growing & with this growth we have one surfing park that’s been around since 2012. Now about 7 miles down river from this park there’s another one being built & expected to open this year. We’ve been land locked & surfing hasn’t been available in Arkansas\, yet now it is! I hope to share this love for the river\, it’s waves & surfing on them. Rob M.\nPlease email me with any questions at arkansasoutdooroutfitters@yahoo.com

SUMMARY:Flint Creek Endurance Grinduro
DESCRIPTION:Flint Creek Endurance invites you to experience some of the best gravel in Western Arkansas and Eastern Oklahoma. This challenge now in its sixth year. The ride starts by the Amphitheather in beautiful downtown Siloam Springs\, AR. Riders will be led out of town and unleashed onto 25 miles or 50 miles of hard-packed\, fast-rolling gravel backroads. \nRiders are expected to be self-sufficient. This means you are responsible for carrying all your supplies you will need including water\, food\, tools\, spare tubes\, etc. We will provide a limited amount of sag support but that does not preclude you from taking care of yourself out on the course. If you are not comfortable supporting yourself for the full distance of your race\, please consider shortening your ride distance and note our bail-out points. Part of what makes this challenge unique and different from most other gravel rides is that in August it’s HOT which adds to the challenge. 🙂 \nThe full ride/race routes will be released several weeks in advance\, and we certainly encourage you to come out and pre-ride the courses if you would like to. Until then\, follow Flint Creek Endurance on Instagram and Facebook to see “teaser pics” taken along the routes. The routes this year will be different from years past\, however\, we will search for beautiful creek crossings again as it was a major hit in 2022. \nThis ride is a part of the Flint Creek Endurance Wellness Series of combined running and cycling events.

SUMMARY:Arkansas NICA Race 1 - Plateau Region
DESCRIPTION:One of the great things about a NICA League\, which separates us from other youth cycling development programs\, is we produce our own youth-specific events. This means we pick out race venues and work directly with landowners and managers to produce the highest quality youth development racecourses and events. The student-athletes get a stage of their own\, away from adult competitions\, and we strive for safety and fun above all other factors. \nThe Arkansas League will produce a total of 7 events in 2024.  On our Time Trial weekend we will have a special Race Clinic Event on that Saturday aimed at getting more girls on bikes in addition to allowing newer riders have a practice race\, attend a race clinic and do their first mass start.  Followed by a Prelude Time Trial and 4 races in the fall.  New for 2024 we have 2 Regions.  Plains (Central\, South and NE Arkansas) and Plateaus (NWA and OK generally).    The competitive racing will consist of 2 regional events\, and 2 All league Events.   We will crown regional champions at the end of Race 3 based of total points and also have a true “winner take all” State Championship Event at Race 4.  Athletes must have attended atleast 2 prior races to be eligible to win the State Championship.
