Get Out Girl is a fitness & outdoor community that inspires, creates & shares opportunities for individuals, friends, and families to Get Out, Get Active & Get Connected. Kristin McLain's Get Out Girl Paddle Jam benefiting The Flatwater Foundation invites women paddlers of all vessels (SUP, kayak, or canoe) to paddle distances of 2 – 10 miles to provide mental health support to families coping with a cancer diagnosis.

Get Out Girl Paddle Jam is paddled in honor of STAR Flight nurse, Kristin McLain, who lost her life in a helicopter rescue accident in April 2015 in Austin, TX. Kristin was part of Austin's STAR Flight crew for seven years and prior to that was with Flight For Life in Summit County, CO for 2 1/2 year. Kristin was instrumental in creating the first Get Out Girl Paddle Jam and was passionate about sharing her love of paddling, wake surfing, Lake Austin and the outdoors. Kristin was a great supporter, volunteer and advocate both on and off the water for The Flatwater Foundation and the services they provide. Kristin understood the roots of The Flatwater Foundation and what time on the water can do for the body, mind and spirit. Many mornings Kristin could be found on the lake paddling her SUP decompressing after a long night of rescue work. In her honor and memory, Get Out Girl Paddle Jam will always be known as Kristin McLain's.
