Paddle Battle returns for a third year on Saturday, April 22nd, on Sand Creek in Newton, Ks!

The canoe and kayak race draws dozens of paddlers to Newton for one- and two-mile routes and, new this year, paddleboat sprints.

Registration begins at 9 a.m. Saturday, and races start at 10 a.m. Prizes will be awarded, and T-shirts will be provided to those who pre-register, while they last. Registration is $25, and a portion of the proceeds will benefit Heart 2 Heart Child Advocacy Center.

Online registration is available at tonewton.com/paddle-battle.html.
