EVENTS

• REGISTRATION IS NOW CLOSED. SEE YOU NEXT SEASON.
• Pre-registration is encouraged due to limited space.
• Intermediate to advanced paddlers.
• The meetup location is the Poudre Park Community Center in Poudre Park, CO. The CC is next to the local Fire Department---do not park at or near the FD. There's ample parking in front and rear of the CC, as well as along Poudre Park Road—just be sure not to block driveways.
• Check-in starts at 11:00 AM for orientation, confirmations, grouping and safety talks, directions and shuttle. We will head up 1:00-1:15 PM.
• Launch starts at 2:00 PM. Please be orderly and considerate to others on the beach during the event. 
• The post-race meetup is scheduled around 5:00-6:00 PM to announce results and distribute awards. 

 About the Race

• This timed, co-ed paddle race welcomes all boats under 9 feet whether old-school or modern. If you're looking for a challenge, bring your favorite boat and see how it performs against the competition. Prizes furnished by RMA.

Course Modification

•  If water levels are too low or too high, the race may be moved to an alternate launch site, rescheduled, or cancelled for safety reasons. 

What to Bring to the Community Center

• Bring your own food and drink. We will provide bottled water and snacks. The CC has refrigerators and stove tops, but please note that alcohol is not allowed.

Equipment

• All racers are responsible for bringing the required gear and ensuring it is in good working condition. Racers who arrive without the required equipment or with equipment deemed unsafe or unsuitable, may risk participation and forfeiture of payments. I know you know what to bring, but don't forget the whistle and throw bag.

Age Limitations

• While the minimum age is 18, younger racers can participate with an accompanied adult and a minor's waiver. The adult will be considered as a volunteer safety boater. 

Cost

• While the race is a low-key, breakeven event, there is still insurance and other expenses to cover. Your nominal contribution is sharing in those expenses. 

Waivers

• All participants and volunteer staff and safety are required to sign both ACA and CPA waivers. Waivers are available on this site and at the meet-up.

Also, without the assistance of Rocky Mountain Adventures, Poudre Paddlers of Northern Colorado, and the Poudre Park Community Center the event wouldn't be possible. So visit them and support your local businesses.
