The resolution recognizes the Alabama Scenic River Trail, which was established in 2008 and designated as a National Recreational Trail in 2009 and a National Water Trail in 2012. Originally spanning 650 miles, the trail has expanded to over 6,500 miles of accessible waterways by 2024, promoting Alabama's natural resources and contributing to the state's economy through partnerships with over 70 canoe and kayak rental shops. The trail has also focused on enhancing safety for paddlers by installing mile markers across the state and has successfully hosted the Great Alabama 650 Race for five years, attracting international attention and participation.

In acknowledgment of the achievements of the race participants, the resolution commends the division winners of the Great Alabama 650 Race, highlighting their skill and perseverance. The winners include Trey Reaves, Salli O'Donnell, and the two-person team of Matt Taylor and Myles Sumerlin, who showcased exceptional performance in the 650-mile paddle race. The resolution expresses appreciation for the race's role in promoting paddling activities in Alabama and directs that copies of the resolution be sent to the Alabama Scenic River Trail office and each of the division winners.
