Regatta
Paddle with a Purpose! Saturday October 15, 2011
Thank you for making Environmental Traveling Companions' (ETC) & Sea Trek's 30th Anniversary Regatta and Paddle-a-thon a smashing success!
More than 225 paddlers hit the water on Saturday, supported by a land-based crew of over 60 AMAZING ETC volunteers. Thank you to Nicki Bluhm & The Gramblers for providing a rocking after-party at the Bay Model, thank you to all the sponsors and donors that made this possible, and thank you to our awesome Paddle-a-thoners! These 21 racers went above and beyond to raise funds for ETC, and we have to give a shout-out to Sue Lesage, our top fundraiser who raised more than $3,000 for our scholarship program for paddlers with disabilities and disadvantaged youth!
Photos and race results will be available on the main Regatta website as soon as they are available.
“The wilderness of the mountains, rivers, and seas awakens in us a new sense of freedom. We're free to explore our own limits and that sense of proud fulfillment is much more powerful than the sense of disability.”
