On September 19, 2015 you will have that opportunity at the 3rd Annual Chucktown Showdown, presented by The Carolina Paddle Board Co.
Your journey will begin as you paddle down the Ashley River along the shores of Charles Towne. You will follow the tide past Revolutionary War battle sites and will head directly towards Fort Sumter, the location where the Civil War began. To your left you may spot the USS Yorktown from World War II, and you will circle around Castle Pinckney which was used to protect this Holy City centuries ago. The finish line will bring you back to modern day Charleston, SC. Truly a paddle through history!
There will be cash prizes for the long course! For terms, please visit the website provided.
There will be crafts, food trucks, a special olympics race, a kids race, and more!
For a full schedule, please visit the website provided.
