Saturday, July 10, 2010 - 4pm
White Salmon, Washington
REGISTRATION: 3:45pm
RACE BEGINS: 4pm
Downtown Jewett Blvd will be closed for our Nights in White Salmon - Art & Wine Fusion festival, and what better way to kick off this salmon-themed event than with a Krazy Kayak Street Slalom??? Already sounds interesting, doesn’t it ... but how will it work, you ask?
Kayaking is all about preparing properly and then having fun. So, your team of up to 6 salmon "chums" should have fun preparing creative costumes and decorating a kayak that is rigged ot be pulled up the street. Three OSHA (Oh So Humble and Awkward) cradles mounted on fixed and swivel caster wheels for rolling with ropes for towing will be available if you don’t create your own. For the competition your costumed team will pull or push your kayak for two blocks up Jewett Blvd along a winding chalk course. Prizes will be given for Best Team Costumes, Best Decorated Kayak, and Most Creative Style on the course.
The only things we require are that you run the course SAFELY and SANELY so you don’t hurt yourselves or the spectators lining the street, you don’t do damage to anyone or anything, and you don’t offend or gross out anyone at this family-friendly event.
Sounds awesome, doesn’t it? Where do you sign up? Well, the form for the FREE registration is right here. So get your team together, turn in your registration (did we mention, it’s FREE) and then get working on your costumes, boat, and style for the course.
Finally, get yourselves to the Klickitat Pottery starting area by 3:45 pm on Saturday, July 10, 2010.
Most of all, remember to have FUN! Questions? Contact Lloyd DeKay via email or at (509) 637-2737.
