Columbia River Outrigger Canoe Club (CROCC) is proud to present the 20th Annual Race Around the Island (RATI) as part of the 2015 PNW-ORCA Summer Race Season. This will be a special celebration and we look forward to having you there! Please join us at Chinook Landing Marine Park in Fairview Oregon on May 30, 2015 for the race and celebration!

Pre-registration opens immediately and closes on May 25, 2015. Since we ran out of Salmon last year, we have added another incentive to Early Entries. You will receive 2 raffle extra tickets per paddler AND we will place a hold on a lunch plate to insure you get one. When you check in and pay for the lunch, we will set aside the Salmon fillets for your team.

Chinook Landing is a 67 acre marine park with a six-lane public boat ramp, picnic areas with a large parking lot, flush restrooms, a seasonal river patrol station and connections to Portland’s 40 mile loop trail. The site also includes interpretive signage, mainly about the nearby wetlands. Lewis and Clark likely stopped near the site.

A continental breakfast, coffee, and water will be provided to our participants. We will also be selling a BBQ lunch.

At the end of the day, there will be a Raffle and Awards presentation.

Aloha CROCC and our supporters!!!

As we head towards the end of 2014 its getting to be the time to reflect on the year we had. The Club had an incredible year in which we grew by almost cub growth (went from 12 members to 42!!), Crews placed in first and second places within their divisions, and celebrated several weddings along the way. Mahalo nui loa to each of you! I hope each of you realize how proud I am of what you each accomplished this year!

What a great time out at Ester Short park with the folks from Ke Kukui Foundation and the wonderful folks who came to visit and ask questions. Thanks to all the crew that showed up and supported CROCC in this event. We had a great response from the public and were able to bring back a lot of memories with Po’ Anuenue.
