White River Paddle Days and Festival’s races

Registration is now open for the White River Paddle Days and Festival's races! The event is happening from June 14th through 16th, and it's gonna be a blast! The White River Alliance is inviting everyone interested in racing by canoe, tandem kayak, or single kayak to participate in the event, no matter what your skill level is!

All races are 6.5-7 miles long and should take a little over an hour to finish. The check-in opens each day at 8:30 AM, and there's a short program about Discover White River. Buses start leaving for the start line at 9 AM, and the races will take place in Daleville, Indianapolis, and Noblesville.

You could win some sweet awards for being the first three finishers by boat type: canoes, tandem kayaks, and kayaks. If you're feeling extra, you could also win the team spirit award by racing in a themed outfit or costume. And if you participate in all three races (Canoe Country, Frank's Paddlesports Livery, and White River Canoe Company), you'll be eligible for the participation award.

The registration fee is $40 per single kayak or $80 per canoe/tandem kayak for two-person teams. The registration fee includes everything you need, from the canoe/kayak rental to food and drinks, and entertainment. It's a great way to support the White River Alliance, too!

You can also earn points through the free Discover White River Rewards Pass by attending any of the races! You could get some pretty neat prizes, like stickers, t-shirts, and on-water experiences.</span><span data-preserver-spaces="true">After you register, you'll get more info about locations, race routes, pre-and post-event activities, and other event details.
