Gauley River Festival (WV) Is Right Around The Corner

September brings big booming flows to the Gauley River in WV. Gauley Fest provides the paddling community with an opportunity to gather at this amazing river and celebrate American Whitewater stewardship success.

Over the last 30 years Gauley Fest has grown to become the largest river festival in the world. Gauley Fest is also the largest membership drive for American Whitewater and your support feeds our national river stewardship effort. Put September 17-20 in your calendar and join us in West Virginia. There are still a few vendor booth spaces available for those who wish to display their whitewater products.

More information is available at the Gauley Festival web page. Bring your friends and experience firsthand this legendary river. If you plan to paddle, read this open letter to boaters from the Gauley River National Recreation Area Rangers.

See you on the river!
