Riverfest! and the NEPC Race
July 30, 2023 @ 10:00 am - 4:30 pm EDT
This event has been cancelled due to recent flooding. Safety is our utmost concern for racers, volunteers, and community members. We recommend avoiding any river recreation until local river safety messaging becomes available. We look forward to bringing back Riverfest and NEPC next year.
Family-friendly fun on the Connecticut River with music, food, & river recreation!
The morning begins with the New England Paddlesports Championship (NEPC) race, where over 60 racers will compete in 12-mile and 5-mile loops right off the shore from Norm’s Marina. Come on over to watch the race, then continue to enjoy a day of free, family-friendly activities to showcase the many benefits of healthy rivers and related recreation options. CRC, Brattleboro Reformer, and local partner organizations will offer on-site activities.
