Event Location

OK, it's time to nail it down.  We will meet at Anglers Inn lower lot at 0800 for the competitors meeting and the race will start at approximately 0830.

The race will be a Figure 8 course.  We will start at the beach at Anglers put-in and race upstream to Center Chute of Difficult Run Rapids.  Attain Center Chute, then descend through Maryland Chute.  Cross back over to Center Chute and attain Center Chute again.  Descend through VA Chute and return to Anglers and finish by touching the beach at Anglers put-in. 

The course is about 1.5 miles long.  See the map at http://worldkayakblogs.com/billsblog/2008/07/10/2008-potomac-whitewater-festival-attainment-race-update/
