The RPC3 Shootout is a unique race, in that it doesn’t follow the normal race divisions that Midwest races usually follow.

In the RPC3 Shootout, the boat type doesn’t determine your class…the paddle does! Are you paddling with a single blade (canoe style)? Or a double blade (kayak style)?

There are 4 official divisions in the Shootout: Single Blade Solo Double Blade Solo Single Blade Tandem Double Blade Tandem There is a fifth division called Exhibition. This division is for folks who for whatever reason just can’t find a way to fit into the regular divisions. It might be because they want to have 3 people in the boat… or it might be because they want to switch paddle types during the race, or because they power their boat with bicycle pedals!

All racers will receive good swag such as a premium dry bag, premium straps, T-shirt, etc. Trophies for the top 3 in each class, and medals for all racers.

Free for all racers, crew, and families: Grilled hot dog and sausage buffet with water, pop, fruit, and snacks. Raffle prizes based on current sponsorships.
