Just wanted to let some of you folks know that we have revived the Riversport Slalom after a 6 year lapse.
It takes place on Sept. 1-2 at Ramcat Rapid on the Middle Youghiogheny in Confluence, PA.

Riversport Slalom

This is wonderful, but, oh, *why* on Labor Day weekend? :)
We'd love to participate, but that's a tough already obligated weekend only 2 weeks away.
Wish we'd known about it sooner....

Why Labor Day weekend? Well it actually fit in the schedule for the race organizers and other logistical reasons. Sorry it doesn't work for you but maybe you can make it next year.

Not the best but we were busy trying to stay upright. :wink: Oh there are pictures of Jim's boat for sale in there too.

It was great to meet and talk to folks.. and paddle with them as well. :D

Thanks to the sponsors, judges and the safety boaters - all of whom took time way from their Holiday weekend to make it all happen!

Paul C. and family
