THE SPOT, WND&WVS and HULA welcome you to the 11th annual STAND UP FOR THE LAKE at the BURLINGTON SURF CLUB on our “West Coast”, the stunning Lake Champlain.
We're moving our weekly paddle clinic with Tommy Buday to Thursday night on the week of the race. Anyone interested in dialing in their paddle technique just before race day should plan on attending.
Come sign up Friday night at The Burlington Surf Club. This is your chance to register for the race, pick up your race packet, and listen to our DJ all on the beautiful shores of Lake Champlain.
Racers must check-in and pickup their race bibs at the Burlington Surf Club. Parking is easily available.
Event emcee and race organizers will go over the day's race rules and course. Q & A sesh too!
This is a 6 mile course rounding the north and south buoys for two laps. The race begins with a beach start and a right hand buoy turn around the near shore buoy before heading north. After completing the second lap, paddlers will round the near shore buoy and head to the beach for a sprint across the finish line.
This is a 3 mile course rounding the north and south buoys for one lap. The race begins with a beach start and a right hand buoy turn around the near shore buoy before heading north. After completing the first lap, paddlers will round the near shore buoy and head to the beach for a sprint across the finish line.
We'll have some food options set up on the beach for all racers to enjoy.
For those that are interested, we're teaming up with Jack Kane to host the Surfrider Sprints after the distance races. This is a one-on-one single buoy turn out-and-back sprint where winners advance toward a final show down. Cost of entry is $10. Proceeds go to the Surfrider Foundation.
First place trophies will be awarded to the fastest male and female paddler in the elite race along with prize money for first, second, and third places. We've also got a pile of prizes generously donated by our sponsors for the top recreational race winners.
The 6 Mile Race is two laps around the course.
The 3 Mile Race is one lap around the course.
The Kids Race is out around the first bouy and back to the beach.
