Sidelaunch Days are almost upon us. From August 1-3, Collingwood‘s first harbour festival will take over the Georgian Bay shoreline. Sidelaunch Days Festival is a celebration of Collingwood’s rich history of shipbuilding and Great Lakes innovation.

If you’ve never paddled the Bay this will be an ideal time to hop on a stand-up paddleboard (SUP).

The Ontario Summer Splash SUP Race Series will be making a stop, with distance races through the harbour as well as exciting knock-out sprints. And Blu Wave SUP will offer demos all weekend.

-Long Distance SUP Races, with Novice (2.67 km), Open (5.38 km), and Elite (10.87 km) events: Saturday, August 1st – 11 am to 12 pm.
-Sprint SUP Races: Saturday, August 1st – 2 pm to 3 pm.

All race details here.

Stay tuned for more posts on all aspects of the Festival.
