Push back against the Fraser River freshet current in the 15th year of the FLCC River Run!  Fort Langley Canoe Club invites you to join us, at Fort Langley docks, for OC6 and small boat racing on Saturday and Sunday, June 20 and 21, respectively.

Our new short and long courses will pit you against the mighty Fraser River in freshet (flood) – it will challenge the paddlers and steersperson alike! You’ll share the battle against the currents with the sturgeon, salmon, seals and beaver, while bald eagles sail overhead, and, onshore, deer and the occasional black bear cheer you on.

• The OC6 short course is approx. 9 km and the OC6 long course is approx. 18 km..  
• OC6 race fee is $210 per adult crew and $90 for Keiki and Junior crews.

Once you’ve taken on the Fraser in the big boats on Saturday, haul out your small boat (OC1, OC2, V1, surfski, kayaks, K1 and K2, marathon canoes, SUPs, etc.) and race the river again on Sunday.

• The Small Boats course is approx. 10 km.
