June 9 and/or 10, 2023. The Okanagan Super Sprints are fast, fun 250 m sprints on Skaha Lake in Penticton. This event offers head-to-head racing over a shorter distance, allowing teams to practice all their race-specific tactics.

Again for 2023, our Okanagan Super Sprints has an optional second day of racing for teams with paddlers 55 years and older.

Friday, June 9th is only for crews 55+.
Saturday, June 10th is for teams of all ages.

While the competition is fierce and the races are quick, this is a more relaxed, laid back atmosphere. Prizes of local libations are awarded to the top teams of the day instead of the traditional ribbons and medals.

A popular fundraiser, teams are challenged to see who can bring in the most money. The team raising the highest amount of donations are given free entry into the following year’s event.  Over the years we have raised over $40,000 for Muscular Dystrophy Canada.  This year, funds will be going toward the new Skaha Lake Boathouse.
