SUP Obstacle course? What’s this all about? This about buoy turns for days, cargo net climbing, slip and sliding, and spectators throwing water balloons at you while you do it. Sounds fun? We didn’t think that was good enough…so we added puppies! Will be raising money for American Rescue Dog, a puppy rescue shelter close to our heart, who will be at the race holding an adoption event.
Wait, how hard is this? Is it CRAZY hard?
No, it’s designed to be challenging but fun.
How do I pick which race to do?
Well, if your SERIOUS, like when the Joker said, “Why so seriousss?”, then you should do the 4 mile. If you are here to paddle with Dori from Finding Nemo, you should do the 2 mile race.

2 Mile Race: Lifeguard start, 2 mile paddle, Obstacle course, Slip & Slide Finish -$55
Obstacle Course: hand over hand pull, tire run, plank ladder crawl, box hop, hurdles, slip n slide finish.
