Check out all the quality content coming from our community of paddlers, both whitewater kayaking and kayak fishing. Tune in, read up and get psyched. This is the Friday's Finds, where we seek to highlight some of the paddlers who call Virginia home. PaddleVa is about all of us.
Over ten years ago sixteen local paddlers held the first downriver race in Goshen Pass of the Maury River, near Lexington, VA. Since that time the Goshen Race has grown into an annual tradition that has included up to 50 racers and a symbolic “kick-off” for the Virginia spring paddling season.
This is a low key, no-frills event focused on fishing, fun, and fellowship. The Appomattox River Company Ashland store took up the RVA Shad Shootout mantle and we are grateful to once again host the generous and compassionate family of Virginia kayak anglers who make up our community

But it's January 27th. Next month is February and then...March! So, what's a sure way to lift your spirits? Research the hot new kayaks, SUPs, canoes, and gear that are hitting our stores. Here is a list of the new goodness arriving just in time for those Spring dreams.
