Alright, I've tried to be subtle about it being March, planning your paddling calendar, and going to spring festivals. Now I'll just say it. Get off of your couches and get to the water. There are two great festivals this weekend. Yes, it's true that both are in the southeastern part of the country. But hey, I gave you all plenty of time to plan accordingly.

In South Florida we have a three day event known as the Adventure Times Kayak Expo which will feature factory reps, demonstrations, and tons of boats. For those of you a little further north there is the heart-stopping NAWFest 2008 in Northern Alabama. NAWFest features exciting drops over waterfalls, races, and competitions as well as camping, bands, and an all around good ole time. What will you be doing this weekend?
