I have to admit this is the one of my favourite river festivals (Palmer Fest is number one of course).

Big water, friendly people, awesome party and the transport truck shuttle bunny is the coolest boat hauling idea ever (especially when the line forms to unload all the boats at the river).

Rapid will be on the river Saturday, Sunday and at the party Saturday night taking pics for the magazine and shooting video for Rapid Media TV.

Come by the Rapid tent and chill in our camp chair lounge. While you're there pick up a free copy of Canoeroots and Rapid Magazine and a special print subscription offer.

Don't forget to fill out the free digital subscription card and drop it in the Rapid mailbox.

If you haven't registered for the festival yet you can do so at www.gatineau.org.

See you on the river.
