Founding of the
Delaware Valley Division
On January 25th, 1998,
the American Canoe Association Board of Directors Approved the new
Delaware Valley Division of the ACA. The DVD mission is to unite the
paddlers of the Delaware River watershed for the benefit of
boating and watershed resources. Until now, the watershed has been
split between three states and three ACA divisions and no single voice
spoke for the region. The DVD crosses state and county lines to include
the whole of the Delaware watershed.
