ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS We wish to try to acknowledge all those who have helped us with this project. There are so many, we are sure to forget some. Our apologies are extended in advance. If you or your organization posted a link to our site and you are not listed below please e-mail Mike Stano so you can be added. We could not have gotten a start without the encouragement and support of many. Our heartiest thanks to all! Two individuals gave a lot of very helpful input into the design of the survey, the grant process, and statistical help. We literally could not have done this without their support. They are Dr. Tim Byers at the University of Colorado, and Marlene Egger Ph.D. at the University of Utah. A number of friends acted as trial survey participants and gave significant feedback. They are Dave Lucas, Gayne Williams, Anne Brindle, and Jeanette Chrane. Special thanks! Other individuals heartily supported our efforts. Jennie Goldberg of The League of Northwest Racers was extremely supportive of the project from the start. Lee Belknap, safety chair at American Whitewater gave significant input. Special thanks! Numerous clubs and message boards provided links and newsletter notices. We’re sure we have not listed all, but thanks to all.
