What to expect ....
Race fee: The dollar amount paid by paddlers varies. You can view payment methods on the Pay Dues page or get a check to the Treasurer.
Hotel: Co-captains will reserve blocks of rooms. Paddlers select roommates and make/pay for their own reservations. Expect a 1 - 2 night stay (except Beaufort).
Getting there: Carpool and/or caravan
Food: We have a water and food table during the race. Co-captains help coordinate who brings what. Meals are on your own, but we try to meet somewhere together after the race.
