See this info from one of our whitewater partners. The Yorkville park is a neat little facility for boating events. Check it out:
Please let your membership know about the 4th annual Illinois Whitewater Festival (IWF) to be held on July 15, 2017 from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm. The location will be at the Marge Cline Whitewater Park in downtown Yorkville, Illinois. The IWF will include slalom whitewater competition which is part of the Buttercup Slalom Series http://www.sws-wis.com/buttercup/ . Also, the IWF will include a Boater Cross event sponsored by World Kayak http://worldkayak.com . The town of Yorkville will again be sponsoring their food and beer festival along with carnival rides next to the white water park. Bring your boat and test your kayaking or canoeing skills against other paddlers in the Midwest. Bring your family for a fun day and great weekend on the Fox River. The Slalom IWF race registration is $15.00 and the Boater Cross event is free.
