The Wenatchee River Festival will feature a Downriver Race and a Freestyle Event - both events are Saturday - the Downriver Race at 10:30 am and the Freestyle at 1:00 pm.

Register for one or both events at Riverside Park in Cashmere on Saturday starting at 9:00 am. Cost is $30.00 (includes the $10 per person insurance fee and shuttle) and is good for participation in all and any on-water events, including clinics, at the festival.

NOTE: A DEPARTMENT OF FISH AND WILDLIFE PERMIT IS REQUIRED FOR PARKING AT RODEO HOLE! HOWEVER, WHEN YOU TAKE THE FREE WENATCHEE RIVER FESTIVAL SHUTTLE FROM RIVERSIDE PARK TO RODEO HOLE YOU WILL NOT NEED A PERMIT OR HAVE TO ARRANGE YOUR OWN SHUTTLE!

On Sunday morning, a women's river running clinic will be conducted by Amy Brown.

Amy Brown has been paddling for just about her entire life, first climbing into a kayak when she was five years old. She grew up in a paddling family and spent almost ten years racing in whitewater slalom, including three years on the US Junior National Slalom Team.

Her experience includes seven years teaching and guiding for the Nantahala Outdoor Center, Adventure Travel trips in Mexico, Panama and Costa Rica, extreme racing and multi-day river trips.

The lure of glaciers and huge mountains drew her west, where she now lives and paddles in Bellingham, WA. When she's not whitewater paddling or telemark skiing, she coordinates and leads wilderness conservation trips for under-served high school kids for North Cascades Institute.
