Day 0

Friday, September 12, 2025

Join us the day before the float begins to set up camp for the weekend. Tent camping will be available in Brunswick for both Friday and Saturday evenings with your paid trip registration. Weekend participants will park their vehicles in Brunswick over the weekend, or have the option of parking their vehicle in Glasgow on Friday to catch an afternoon shuttle to Brunswick. 5-day participants will either park in Jefferson City or at a location closer to Brunswick, depending on where they are coming from. We will provide additional logistics to all paddlers and try to accomodate parking options for which direction people are driving from (St. Louis/east and south vs. Kansas City/west and north), to provide the shortest total shuttle times for 5-day participants.

For weekend paddlers or 5-day participants looking to find options other than tent camping, there are a limited number of RV electric only hookups in Brunswick (please message us if you wish to bring a camper and need electric hookup for the weekend) or some other lodging options in the Brunswick area include:
