What makes a team?
Teams have 16 paddlers and one drummer. It is recommended to have a few alternates. The festival crew can help you fill up your boat if you need assistance. Boats, steer-persons, life jackets, and training are provided.
The minimum age for paddlers is 12 years with signed permission by a parent/legal guardian.

Individual paddlers are welcome. The entry fee is $120. You will be assigned to a team prior to practice week.
