OVERVIEW

Looking for a sweet adventure over fall break?

The American Canoe (and Kayak) Association is hosting the annual national collegiate kayaking and canoeing championships! We are going to take a team to compete in as many events as possible. The races will take place on a 5 mile stretch of the Tuckaseegee River in mountains of North Carolina. The events are Men’s and Women’s one-person kayaking (K1), one-person canoeing (OC1), and mixed one-person canoeing on Saturday (OC1). Sunday is a relay for all the teams in canoes.

UVA sent a team to the National Champs two years ago and represented the club, and our university, quite well. This event is a great opportunity to compete for the Outdoors Club and for UVA.

We’ll camp the nights at the beach on the river and paddle the days.

Skill level: Some experience in a boat (canoe or kayak)

*However, you must be able to wet exit (i.e. have done it before) to compete in the kayak events.
*We will be on class II water
