The Dragoon River Romp is a Keep Boone County Beautiful event. The Dragoon River Romp, will be celebrating its 9th anniversary in 2014. Over the past 8 events the efforts of our volunteers resulted in 25.99 tons of trash being removed from our beautiful Des Moines River and its banks.

Plans for the September 20, 2014 romp will include cleaning a stretch of the river that will begin at the Highway 30 boat ramp to the E57 boat ramp. At the conclusion of the cleanup, all volunteers will be transported back to Seven Oaks for lunch and awards presentation. Canoes, transportation from Seven Oaks to and from the boat ramps and lunch provided.

In a continued effort to ensure safety, volunteers under the age of 18 must be in a canoe with a volunteer 18 or older. We will limit the number of paddlers to 100 and the number of land based volunteers to 45.

Registration packets are available on line starting July 1, 2014.
