What Goes On?

The races are a time for local paddlers to come together and test their skills against one another, as well as themselves. However, the races are more than just a competition. They are an opportunity to come together as a paddling community and celebrate our local rivers. We also feature a raffle, silent auction, food, live entertainment, awards banquet, environmental education, and more. All of this is presented in a family friendly environment.
