Lazy Beaver Canoe & Kayak Race
Date: September 12, 2020
Event Description
LAZY BEAVER UPDATE: Due to Covid 19, it was postponed from its original date of July 25th. The race's starting point is in LaValle on the south side of the river, east of the Highway 58 bridge. The finish line is the Granite Avenue boat landing in Reedsburg, where the awards ceremony and post race picnic are also held. The race begins at 10 AM with paddlers released in timed intervals in order to space out paddlers on the river, which is narrow in many spots.
You may register by filling out the entry form and returning it to: Reedsburg Kiwanis, PO Box 542, Reedsburg, WI 53959 or dropping it off at the Reedsburg Chamber of Commerce office at 240 Railroad St, Reedsburg. The entry fee is $20 per paddler up until August 15th. After that the entry fee is $25 per paddler. The entry fee includes a t-shirt or water bottle and a picnic lunch of sandwiches and pop after race. Early entry is encouraged as it helps Kiwanis in pre-race planning.
