2010 Great Falls Race Results

Welcome to the 2010 Potomac Fest Great Falls Race.  Tom McEwan and the staff and students of Liquid Adventures Kayak School will again organize the race.

Clinics and Demos

Come join us in 2010 for a variety of great clinics offered by both local and nationally recognized paddling experts.  This is a great chance to try out a boat or paddle, learn about river rescue, try playboating, perfect your forward stroke, or get introduced to river kayaking.  Look for updates to this page as we develop clinics for the festival.

Good Luck Racers!

Enjoy the last day of practice and be safe.
I am looking forward to my first PFest and the party Sat night.
Go Team PotomacPaddlesports. Watch out for Pete!!

Can't Find an Event Location?

With clinics and seven on-water events taking place this weekend it might be tough to find yours! Event locations should be listed along wiht the event description. If it is not and you're not sure where to show up for your competitor or participant meeting, ask at Check-in Saturday at the Great Falls tavern green at C&O Canal NHP (Great Falls, Maryland) and Sunday at the Great Falls, Virginia National Park lower lot. We will be there. Look for the American Whitewater Tent!
