SUMMARY:2nd Annual Black River Rumble River Race
DESCRIPTION:All paddlers welcome! Join Boundary Waters Paddlesports Coaching and Conditioning for the 2nd Annual Black River Rumble race - where if you can paddle it\, you can race it!\n\nNEW this year we will be adding 15 mile and 30 mile distances in addition to the 5 mile and 10 mile race options!\n\nNEW this year is also a FREE entry coupon code for racers aged 16 to 18 years of age.  Simply enter code "YOUTH" when completing the online registration.\n\nThere are some sea kayaks\, Prospector canoe\, Wenonah Sundowner canoe\, Clipper Langley\, Nelo OC1\, Gemini OC2\, a Tempest OC2\, and a Force 5 OC6 spec. available for rent from the venue.  \n\nA light lunch and commemorative t-shirt are included in the cost of registration.  An open gear swap & sell to follow.\n\nHISTORY:\n\nThe Black River is one of the greatest and least-known natural treasures on the East Coast. Its biological diversity is unsurpassed\, with banks that are lined with stirring ancient cypress and tupelo trees that clean the river while infusing its translucent waters with dark\, organic tannins.  For centuries\, the river was a conduit for economic vitality\, spanning from the early 1700s Native American trading posts\, and to the prosperous antebellum water-dependent rice industry. \n\nIt is also believed that at one point there were more than 2\,000 pirates in the area at the height of the era that included the infamous Blackbeard\, along with Anne Bonney\, Mary Read and Calico Jack Rackham. Sailing into the deep waters of the Black River\, these swashbucklers were known to dye their sails in the tea-colored waters to aid their stealth in approaching ships at night.\n\nThis area is loaded with historical significance and historical figures\, including local planter Francis Marion\, the legendary "Swamp Fox"\, along with a ragged band of followers\, who almost single-handedly defeated the British in this area.
