Updated Gore Race 2006 Information

[huckit21]

looking for a little info on this years race and last years. When will it be held this year?

Also, who were the top finishers in the kayak race last year, their times, and what kind of boats were they paddling. I am inquiring for the 8' and up divison. thanks

Jed Selby won overall in a Diesel, so boat lengths don't necessarily matter...if you're good. The 8' under usually is more like 8'3 and under, which is most modern creekers.

Usually held 3rd weekend in Aug, but I haven't heard anything about this years event.

Gore will be on Saturday, August 19th. Downriver only this year, no slalom etc. on Friday.

Beer garden and expo stay the same.

We'll be getting more up soon.

I haven't bumped my last post yet, but still looking for volunteers.

email me at samf523@yahoo.com if you are interested in helping out.

I am not aware of any video online. Luke at Whitewater photography has been doing the filming the past 2 years. I know he has made a DVD of last years race. You can contact him directly - Info@WhitewaterPhotography.com
