In the vast, golden plains of North Dakota, where the mighty Bison roam and the sunflowers sway in rhythm with the prairie winds, there exists a group of adventurers unlike any other. These aren't your regular cowboys, mind you. They're the legendary 'Snorkel Squad', a band of children as brave as they are bubbly, who snorkel in the crystal clear waters of the Missouri River. The 'Snorkel Squad' is led by the fabulous and funny, Captain Kelpbeard, a character as colorful as the rainbow trout they often spot under the water. With his snorkel fashioned like a Bison horn and flippers that squeak like a prairie dog, Captain Kelpbeard is always recognizable, even in the murky river depths. Every weekend, adorned in their brightly colored snorkels and goggles, these kids dive head-first into the cool, twinkling waters. They explore the underwater world, where they encounter everything from snooty catfish to dancing freshwater shrimps. Each dive is a new adventure, filled with laughter, friendship, and the sheer joy of discovery. Regardless of the chilly winds that occasionally sweep across ND, these kids are always ready to plunge into the river, their giggles echoing across the plains. Captain Kelpbeard, with his iconic phrase, "Not even the toughest prairie wind can deter a true snorkeler!" always boosts their spirits. They may not have the sea or the ocean, but the 'Snorkel Squad' of ND has something even better – a sense of adventure, a river full of mysteries, and the undying spirit of exploration. And of course, they have Captain Kelpbeard, the coolest, funniest snorkeling leader any kid could ever ask for.
