Monthly Webinars - Tips and Tricks for finishing fast
Hosted by MR340 veteran Chris Luedke, the creator of the amazing 340 Paddler YouTube Channel, this is a series of webinars discussing the tips you need to finish, succeed and compete in the MR340.
We'll be hosting one webinar per month on Zoom. Only registered users can attend each webinar on Zoom, which allows for Q&A. We will open 115 registration slots but only 100 registered users are allowed to attend. If you miss the registration, you can still watch the presentation livestreamed on the Missouri River Relief YouTube Channel and the recording will later be shared.
As we nail down topics, dates and create webinars, we'll post the topics and registration links here.
