Two Paddles Races Return June 7-9

Two Paddles races returns for its third year the weekend of June 7-9. Over 200 paddlers participated in 2022 and 2023, respectively, from 17 different states and 4 Canadian provinces.

Per co-founder Scott Miller, "The new finish line at Mississippi Point Park in Champlin offers a scenic and challenging route, eliminating stagnant stretches, motorboats, and a dam. Merging with the Father Hennepin Festival promises a fresh and vibrant atmosphere for all."

Races include: Family 5-mile Challenge, 25 Race, Tour & Relay, 10 Race and Tour, 150 Race, Relay and Tour, 48 Race & Tour and High School Paddle Challenge.

Two Paddles is supported by the following organizations: 1 Mississippi, Northstar Canoes, Mississippi Park Connection, Minnesota Outdoor Industry Partnership, and Paddle Bridge Guide Collective.
