Moss Lake Paddle Race and Fundraiser for Broad Riverkeeper

May 20, 2023 @ 10:00 am - 1:00 pm

All are invited to join us in this first ever paddle race at Moss Lake!

We will meet up at 10:00 sharp at the public access/boat ramp at 863 New Camp Creek Church Rd, Kings Mountain, NC 28086. Your Broad Riverkeeper, David Caldwell, will give a brief introduction and explain the race course and rules, and the race will start at about 10:45. We will paddle up the lake approximately 2 miles, circle around an island, and race back down to the finish line in the boat landing area. Volunteer Safety/Observer boats will be anchored along the race course to help guide the way and assist anyone who might have trouble.

Rules for the race are simple:

  • You must wear a pfd (life jacket) the entire time on the water
  • No motors allowed
  • No sails or pedal power
  • Boats may include: canoes, kayaks, paddle boards, other small craft
  • Paddle solo, tandem, or as many people who will safely/legally fit in the boat
  • No interfering with other boats. Keep it clean.

Prizes: $200 for first, $100 for second, $50 for third.

Event sponsors are:
City of Kings Mountain
Joy Pharr Realty – Ivester Jackson Blackstream, Christie’s International Real Estate

We are looking for “safety boat” volunteers who can anchor their vessels along the course. Email david@mountaintrue.org for more information.
