Missouri American Water MR340
Kansas City To St. Charles on the
Missouri River........
(Mandatory Safety Meeting,
evening of July 15rd)
Imagine a race across the entire state of Missouri, just you
and your boat thrown against 340 miles of wind, heat, bugs
and rain. This ain’t no mama’s boy float trip. This race
promises to test your mettle from the first stroke in Kansas
City to the last gasp in St. Charles. Just entering it will
impress your friends. Finishing it will astound them… and
winning it? Well, you always thought you were sort of a
legend anyway, didn’t you? It’s time to prove it.
The Missouri 340 is an endurance race across the state of
Missouri. Competitors will start in Kansas City and finish,
some of them anyway, in St. Charles. With numerous towns and
hamlets, the course offers plenty of opportunity for
resupply while enroute. The Missouri River is also
incredibly scenic and isolated in some stretches, with
wildlife and beautiful vistas to rival any river in North
America. But if you’re trying to win this race, you won’t
have time to enjoy any of it.

Captain James E. Wilt, commanding officer of Troop B, Macon,
announces a boater safety certification course will be offered
from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m., on Saturday, June 29, 2019, at the Long
Branch Lake Corps of Engineers Visitor Center, 30174 Visitor
Center Road, Macon, Missouri. There is no fee for this course;

course, or to obtain a complete listing of where other courses

Patrol’s website,
www.mshp.dps.mo.gov. A Boat Safety Education & Certification
link can be found on the left side of the Patrol’s home page

Missouri law requires any person born after January 1, 1984, to
carry a boater safety education certification card anytime they
operate a vessel, which includes personal watercraft, on
Missouri lakes. Captain Wilt would like to remind the public the
certification is also required if you intend to operate a rental
boat or personal watercraft on one of Missouri’s lakes.
Participants who successfully pass the course will be eligible
to order a boater safety certification card for $15. The boater
safety certification card does not expire and does not need to
be renewed.
For further information please call Corporal Darren P. Mueller
at (660) 385-2132.
Watercraft operators must consider the effect their actions have
on others: Share the waterway and use common sense, good
judgement, and courtesy to ensure the safety of all. Life
jackets save lives. Wear It!! Follow Troop B on Twitter for the
most current news @MSHPTrooperB.

Missouri State Highway Patrol
News Release......
NEWS RELEASE
June 20, 2019
EMPHASIS: Missouri State Highway Patrol Joins
Operation Dry Water
Colonel Eric T. Olson, superintendent of the Missouri State
Highway Patrol, announces the Patrol's participation in
Operation Dry Water. Operation Dry Water is in its 11th year
and Missouri has participated since the program’s inception.
This national campaign includes marine law enforcement
officers from all 50 states and six U.S. territories.
Officers will coordinate special patrols to keep our
waterways safe from boaters operating under the influence of
alcohol or drugs. This year, July 5-7, 2019, has been
designated as Operation Dry Water weekend.
"Operation Dry Water is an opportunity to remind boaters
they need a designated captain on board their vessel," said
Col. Olson. "Intoxicated boat operators endanger those on
board their vessel as well as other boaters in the area.
Although designated captains are more common today than
ever, it’s an important message to repeat."
Last year, 574 local, state, and federal agencies
participated in a weekend long event of heightened BWI
enforcement known as Operation Dry Water. Officers removed
494 intoxicated boat operators from the water. In addition,
law enforcement officers contacted 201,888 boaters
concerning BWI or boating safety enforcement and awareness.
In 2018, troopers arrested a total of seven people statewide
for boating while intoxicated, contacted 710 vessels and
2,301 boaters, and issued 84 boating violation summonses and
951 warnings on Missouri waterways. Marine operations
troopers also issued 125 summonses for non-boating
violations during the 2018 Operation Dry Water weekend.
Special enforcement operations will continue throughout the
summer months. Boaters are reminded that designating a sober
operator is always the safest bet if alcohol is going to be
included in their boating experience.
Operation Dry Water weekend takes place near July Fourth, a
holiday known for an increase in alcohol-related boating
crashes. Boating under the influence continues to be a
leading factor in crashes and deaths on our nation's
waterways according to U.S. Coast Guard Recreational Boating
Statistics. Alcohol is the leading known contributing factor
in fatality boating crashes.
Boating under the influence applies to drugs as well as
alcohol. Even some prescription medications can make
operating a recreational vessel unsafe. Alcohol use can
impair a boater’s judgment, balance, vision, and reaction
time. The dangers of combining alcohol and boating also
apply to passengers.
"Enforcing Missouri's laws on our waterways is a priority
for our marine enforcement troopers," said Colonel Olson.
"It's important that our citizens and out-of-state guests
include safety when planning to enjoy one of Missouri’s many
waterways. Please designate a sober captain and always wear
a life jacket when you're on or near the water."

Blessing of the Fleet
August 17, 2019
Ahoy to all our seaworthy friends...
I am Rick Flier, President if the Blessing of the Fleet STL and
it's time again this year for our celebration of the 62nd year
of our organization and the gala events that keep the spirit
alive and well throughout our boating community.
As in the past few years, under the leadership of Darryll and
Maureen Weil, we are contacting our great friends and businesses
to see if donations for the BENEFIT for the Blessing, taking
place at Grafton Harbor at 1pm, on July 27th, 2019 would be
possible.
The Blessing parade will start at 1pm, on August 17th, 2019 with
lead boats leaving from The Yacht Club of St Louis and heading
downstream, and leaving from Alton Marina and heading upstream,
to join at the Our Lady of the River shrine at 2:15pm for
commencement of the ceremony. As always, decorated boats will be
judged as they pass by the judge's stand - the theme has yet to
be determined but notification will be made to everyone as soon
as that has been established. Your generous donations and
support have helped keep the heartbeat alive and active and
hopefully we can count on you to help this year as well.
Sincerely,
Rick Flier

Neighbor Nights
National Great Rivers Research &
Education Center
Mississippi River at Alton, IL....
Neighbor Nights is a community event
series at NGRREC held on the first Tuesday of select months
throughout the year. Neighbor Nights is a great time for you,
our river neighbor, to come and learn more about the great
rivers of the world, the watersheds that feed them, and the
communities that use them. It’s also an opportunity to
participate in public tours of our LEED certified field station,
get behind-the-scenes laboratory access, or enjoy hands-on
activities. Limited free food and beverages will be provided.
We are excited to announce that Schlafly Beer will be partnering
with NGRREC for our 2019 Neighbor Night series! This means that,
while you hear from NGRREC staff about their work and learn
about river-related topics, you can enjoy free Schlafly
beverages. Both Schlafly Beer and NGRREC are committed to
environmental sustainability, so the partnership was a natural
fit. And, we can’t wait to bring this partnership to you!
Each month offers something different and highlights a unique
project led by one of our researchers, educators, or
conservationists, so make sure to check out this year’s topics
and come see us for a few of your favorites!
