Pints and Paddles

September 14, 2019 @ 8:00 am - 2:00 pm

Team River Runner’s

Pints & Paddles for a Cause

Supporting our Veterans

Come splash around and sip delicious beer for an incredible cause at this event, benefiting Team River Runner, a non-profit that leads wounded veterans on a road to recovery through kayak and other paddling programs.

The day kicks off with a recreational paddle around Mission Bay’s Vacation Isle, then join in on the fun for our Khaotic Kayak & SUP Pandemonium races.  All will be launching from Santa Clara Point. At the finish line, paddlers receive a commemorative T-Shirt at the “Pints For A Cause” after-party, where the legendary Mission Bay Yacht Club will be serving up a  BBQ lunch, beer, live music, and exciting prizes to both paddlers and the public.  

We invite ALL paddlers – whether you are never-ever, to just for fun or a paddling pro — to come together for a day on the water and support Team River Runner! The emphasis is on FUN versus speed. Pints and Paddles is a paddle community event, and we encourage everyone to attend!
