****2011 Tuesday Nights and Pre-Paddle Grand Prix 3 - Race Point Series****

It is time to get ready to STAND UP and THROW DOWN!

First come to our weekly Tuesday Night SUP Races and Kite Paddle Surf board Demo’s every Tuesday at Lake Padden for a weekly 2+ mile tune-up race, demo’s and family fun! These run June 14th – August 2nd. We will have special kids races after the main race on June 21st, July 12th and August 2nd.

Then, we have three weeks of the Pre-Paddle Grand Prix Point Series!  The Pre-Paddle Grand Prix 3-Race Point Series is a series of three SUP races held on Bellingham Bay. Each race will consist of two-laps around the PGP race course, but, starting from Cornwall Beach, not Boulevard Park.

These are free, informal ‘pick-up’ races to get everyone race-ready and stoked for race day. Bring your own board, paddle and PFD’s! (PFD’s and whistles are required by the Coast Guard on Bellingham Bay. Please have yours either on or attached to your SUP! We also highly recommend leashes!)
