Friends of the Winooski River is holding the 2022 Onion River Race and Ramble on Sunday June 5th. Get your friends and neighbors together outdoors to enjoy a paddle along the Winooski River between Bolton and Richmond. It promises to be a day of excitement, camaraderie, and fun! Details are on our web site https://winooskiriver.org/paddle

The Race and Ramble has a paddling class for everyone! Want to paddle but not race? Be a Rambler. Want to paddle as a family? Sign up for the Youth/Family class. Want to race but don't have a long or fancy boat? Join one of the Recreational classes. And of course, there are classes for the fast and furious! Sign up early as space is limited.

With each registration, there is an option to add $5 for lunch, which will be a fresh spread of deli platters with lots of options for making your own sandwiches, plus snacks and drinks.

We need volunteers, too! Some of the volunteer slots are early so you can paddle too, and your registration fee will be waived.

Sponsored by the Friends of the Winooski River with support from Umiak Outfitters. Proceeds will be used to protect and restore the Winooski River watershed.
