Registration Ends Friday, August 23, 2024 at 8:00PM!

If you plan to attend the Friday Night Paddler’s Party, please add it to your registration when you register for your selected race. We look forward to hosting each and every one of you in our beautiful and charming little city of Belmont, NC.
Laissez les bon temps rouler!

*We again have access to the event venue, Gaston County Wildlife Club, on Friday evening and we've hired an overnight off duty police officer to keep watch on all equipment set out on site Friday evening. We know the pain and suffering that comes along with having your craft stolen when traveling for an event. So, it is our hope that we can help provide some peace in knowing that your belongings are safe and secure when enjoying the festivities planned for this weekend festival.

ALL PADDLERS MUST HAVE A COAST GUARD APPROVED PFD ON THEIR BODY AT ALL TIMES THROUGHOUT THE RACE AND IT MUST BE WORN IN PROPER ORIENTATION. IF YOU DON'T HAVE ONE, WE WILL BE SELLING THEM AT THE ANCHORED SOUL TENT. ALL SUPs MUST BE EQUIPPED WITH A SUP LEASH AND IT MUST BE ATTACHED TO THE PADDLER AT ALL TIMES THROUGHOUT THE RACE.
