The event will immediately follow the annual White Water Derby which is a longer race composed of kayaks and canoes. A full complement of fireman and first responders will be in hand throughout the route to ensure the safety of participants. 

The event takes place at 1 p.m. Sunday, April 3, directly after the White Water Derby. The Starting Point is 80 N. Central Ave., Mechanicville, and the Ending Point is the Mechanicville City Dock, where Anthony Kill meets the Hudson River.

Awards will be given out for creativity and most seaworthy.
