Saturday morning: 2 hour (approx. 20 km) tandem race where paddlers choose their own partners. Course would be similar to previous years (upstream/downstream return with side-channel loops). Let us know if you are looking for a partner or a boat and we may be able to connect you with someone. Fun prizes for top-finishers and participants.
-Race briefing at 9 am.
-Start time: 10 am.
Saturday and Sunday afternoons: relaxed group paddle. We will encourage and coordinate opportunities for less experienced paddlers to pair with experienced ones.
Sunday morning: 3-4 short (~10 min) tandem races with good views for spectators. Race organizers will choose the teams to level the playing field and make things interesting; you will be paddling with a different partner each race. Prizes for individuals with top cumulative scores across all races.
-Race briefing at 9 am.
-Start time: 10 am.
