The Withlacoochee Wilderness Canoe & Kayak Race & Rally
Saturday, April 10, 2010
Buddy Risher Park, Inglis By-Pass Spillway, Inglis, Florida

According to their website:

Paddler’s have two event options:
The first option is a 7 mile race with men’s kayak, women’s kayak, and combined tandem kayak/canoe categories.

This race is recreational class only.

Race awards for 1st, 2nd and 3rd place for men’s and women’s kayaks, and 1st and 2nd place for combined tandem kayak/canoe category.

The second option is a 5 mile river rally for those who choose to just relax and enjoy the scenery. This 5 mile river rally has no class or gender group. The rally requires the participants to find clues and answer questions along the river.
The paddler with the most correct answers will be the winner of the rally.

This event starts at the Inglis By-Pass Spillway of the Withlacoochee River and ends at the Winding River Park in Yankeetown.

 At the end of the event, participants will be shuttled back to their vehicles.

This would be a great event for my family. We have one paddler that loves to race his kayak; three paddlers that like a little competition but mostly like to paddle and enjoy the scenery, and a fourth paddler who just loves to relax when he paddles.
