This is Yadkin Riverkeeper's biggest and most fun event of the summer! There will be food, beverages, and fun for the whole family. Musician Collin Allured, Soulful/Acoustic, will perform. The TOUR raises money for Yadkin Riverkeeper, allowing us to run education programs, conduct research and champion legislation that protects our waters. Paddlers meet at Childress Vineyards in Lexington, NC, for the 9.3-mile paddle.
Paddlers with their own boats are charged a $38 entry fee per person per day to cover insurance, shuttle, processing fees and entry to post-paddle events. If you have paid your Yadkin Riverkeeper Membership Fee ($25), the entry fee to paddle is $30. The student paddling entry fee is $25.
Don’t have a canoe or kayak? Yadkin Riverkeeper has negotiated preferred rates for kayak rental (holds one person, $37 per day) or canoe rental (holds two people, $49 per day). Rental charges are in addition to your entry fee.
