Great Falls has something that most cities don't.

So with all these people loving the Missouri River, they decided to for a club to show everyone else how great it is.

And it doesn't matter if you want to kayak, canoe, or even paddle boat. Everyone is invited.

For most of the paddlers its a great was to trick yourself into working out.

One of the paddlers biggest events is this Sunday, The Montana Cup, where east of the divide meets west of the divide to see who the best paddlers are in the state of Montana.

The teams will start in Craig and race 14 miles with the fastest time taking home the championship. If you would like more information how how to join in on the cup...or the paddlers, visit out website KFBB.com.
