Join us again this year for the Festival’s Annual “Shot Gun Start” Canoe and Kayak Race.
Registration takes place at Wilbur Park near Highbank Bridge in South Yarmouth. We will have a shot gun start from the beach (weather permitting) and then paddle down historic Bass River, with the outgoing tide to the Bass River Beach (aka Smuggler’s Beach).
The race will be followed by food, fun, and prizes at the Sea Dog Brew Pub.
