Salt Springs Alliance, Inc. - 4th Annual Salt Springs Classic

May 8, 2010

With the recent possible threat of an "oil-spilled " coastline, participants in the Salt Springs Classic Kayak Race and Fun Paddle were particularly appreciative of the beautiful weather and scenery on race day, May 8th. The fourth annual race was held in conjunction with the Cotee River Seafood Fest in New Port Richey.

Beginning at 10AM in Werner-Boyce Salt Springs State Park in Port Richey, paddlers set out on the 6 mile course which took them around the coastline and into the Cotee river, ending at the Sim's Park Boat Launch. First to complete the course was local racer Brent Postma with a time of 48:38. Awards were given for first, second and third place in 3 categories: over 15 feet, 15 feet and under, and tandem. Complete results and pictures are included below.
