want to bring the following suggested items:
-
A team dry bag for keys, wallets, etc that can be left on land in one person’s car or with a family member staying
on land.
Comfortable shoes that you don’t mind getting wet
Comfortable clothes that you don’t mind getting wet
A “butt pad” to sit on, an hour is a long time to sit on a little wooden bench and paddle. Garden kneeling pads
from Walmart or Lowes work well
Bottle of water – bring it in the boat
Change of clothes or a sweatshirt to wear afterwards if it’s cool out – being wet in cool air isn’t fun.
Sunglasses for both sun protection and keeping the splashes out of your eyes
Sunblock

RACE SCHEDULE
At the end of this document you will find the racing schedule. Here are a few notes about reading the schedule:
-
Teams must report to marshalling 20 minutes BEFORE their scheduled race time. The Race time is when the gun
will go off at the start line for them to race.
Your first 2 races are scheduled in advance
Races in rounds 1 and 2 are 2-boat races
There are an odd number of teams, so “The Compound” team is shown as racing twice in Round 1 and not at all
in Round 2 which is just a method to keep the racing going smoothly.
Both times from Rounds 1 and 2 will be added together and sorted fastest to slowest, and from that, teams will
be “seeded” into a divisional final for round 3.
The final round of racing will be 3- and 4-boat races
The winners of each divisional final will determine the winners
AWARDS
Medals will be given out as follows:
-
Gold / Silver / Bronze for the 1st 2nd and 3rd place winners of the Premier Mixed Division A Final
Gold for the 1st place winner of Premier Mixed Division B Final
Gold for the 1st place winner of Premier Open Division A Final
Gold for the 1st place winner of Premier Men’s and Open Final
