The "Bubble" can handle that many canoes and kayaks, and if you're new to our event, you'll fit right in. This event is "fun-run" style in that few - if any - will be out there to win. You can compete or just join a paddling community that is growing every day.
We have a new wrinkle this year in that we'll have shuttle service via the Yankton Riverboat Days Committee and our staff. Come to the bubble around 1 p.m., drop off your kayak or SUP, register, then drive to the visitor's center on Fourth Street. Drop your vehicle, grab the shuttle back and BAM! You're ready to race back to your car.
The Kayak Run will have a short-hop shuttle from the water's edge to the parking area to help you wrap up your time on the river. It's going to be fun, so save the date: Aug. 16, and we'll see you then.
In the meantime, please consider our sister race on July 19, the Fort to Field 50 Paddle Battle. It's a 50-mile race from Pickstown to Springfield and you can sign up to race it, volunteer for it, or just learn more right here.
