RIVERFEST UPDATE: We’re hosting a gear swap on 8/29. Bring your unwanted gear (bags, boats, paddles, etc) and trade or sell it with others in the river community🛶

We’ll have a section set up where you can leave your gear on display with your contact info for other boaters to reach you if interested.

It’s a good way to get some new gear or finally get rid of everything that’s been sitting around unused.
