About the event
Tune up your canoe, kayak, or paddleboard and head on over to Excelsior for a friendly race out around Big Island and back. We start at Excelsior Public Beach and paddle to the starting line together. Our goal is to get paddlers of all ages and skill levels out on Lake Minnetonka for a great community summer event and raise money for a couple of very worthy causes.
Don't miss the after-party at Excelsior Brewing Company beginning at 11 a.m. for food, music and of course, beer! Awards and door prizes will be given away by our wonderful sponsors. Make a day of it and explore beautiful Excelsior!
Proceeds from this event support the ICA Food Shelf and Freshwater.
