*Special Notes:

• For our F&B (menu) planning logistics, registration will close at 5:00 PM on Wednesday, October 23, 2024.
• Should the weather conditions fall within the realm of the "Wet/Dry Suit" requirements where there is a heightened risk of hypothermia resulting from capsize, (air/water combined temperatures of less than 120 degrees, e.g.; air temperature 50 degrees - water temperature 63 degrees,) the event will be cancelled. Other WX conditions that may cause cancellation include thunderstorms, relentless rain, high winds, no wind, etc. 
• The event will also be cancelled if there are low registration numbers of fewer than 10 paid participants. 
• In the event of cancellation, we will send an email message to registrants and will issue a full refund of registration fees.
