Meet OPS
One Paddle Society.
Meet Owen Freeman.
I’m Owen Freeman, founder and operator of One Paddle Society.
I was born and raised in Lesterville, Missouri, along the Black River. My family’s history here goes back generations. I’ve spent my life floating the river and on its banks, with the sunburns to prove it.
OPS brings together original software development, websites, marketing, media and business solutions. Projects can focus on how customers find you, their experience with your business or the work your team handles behind the scenes. I work directly with the customer from the first conversation through the finished project.
Based in Lesterville, I serve the Black River region, Southeast Missouri, Central Missouri, St. Louis and the greater St. Louis region. Remote work is also available. On-site work is scoped for each project.
OPS also publishes an independent Black River guide with places to float, stay, eat and explore. That editorial work is separate from paid business projects.
OPS does not officially represent any town or featured business. Free editorial inclusion is separate from paid OPS services.
Meet Nala.
This is my dog, Nala. You’ll spot her in some of my river photos.
She isn’t much help with the emails.
