    Key Things to Remember When Registering

    • Registration is non-refundable (unless the event is cancelled for unsafe conditions) and registration is non-transferrable.  (You cannot "sell" your launch times to another party).
    • Please complete one registration form PER VESSEL (canoe or kayak) needed and list all paddlers riding in your vessel on this form. 
    • If your party will have more than one vessel, a separate registration form must be completed for each additional vessel.
    • After completing this registration form, if you are renting a vessel, you will be redirected to the Kayaking Texas website, where you will pay for your vessel rental directly to Kayaking Texas. Registration is NOT complete until you have done this. 
    • If you are bringing your own vessel, you do not need to complete this step.
    • Each paddler must also submit two individual liability waivers (one for ANRA and one for the T.L.L. Temple Foundation's Boggy Slough). 
    • Registration is not complete until payment is received. An emailed receipt will be sent once payment is received. 

    If you have questions during registration, please contact:

    recreation@anra.org or 936-633-7507.
