2019 was a success! Please refer to the bottom of this page for race results.
We are returning to the basics – 20 paddler boats and a 500 meter race course. Depending on the number of entrants, we might have at least one 250meter heat. Our goal is to have two qualifying heats, semi-finals and finals.
As always, the river will be a part of your race challenge. Community Teams will race a 250meter course.
We can help match your team with another team in the same boat. (no laughing)
