However, this paddle fest will also include a race. This paddle fest, we are actually partnering with the Johnson County Trail Town or Trail Committee. And then we're also partnering with Paintsville Tourism. We're happy to be doing that again, bringing Paintsville Tourism back on board. So this year, they'll have the option to do our traditional paddle fest, which is the 8 mile or the 16 mile float on down to Paintsville. Or we're also partnering with the Johnson County Trail Town or Trail Committee and they are with the Waterman series. So there's also going to be a race going on that people can do 8 miles, 16 miles or 24 miles. So you can have a float, totally chill or race, whichever one you choose. Tickets to paddle fest are $15 and include a shuttle and catered lunch. I think paddle fest, like the first, it just kicks off that summer series. It's right before Memorial Day and it's like, okay, it's time to get out and have fun. It's a great family friendly event. Like anybody can do it, even if you've never been in a kayak or a stand up paddle board. Anybody can literally do it because there's no white water. But it's a great community event. I mean, the mayor's out, Mayorless Stapleton's out, watching the boats in the morning and people bring their pets along with them. And then we also bring in a local restaurant to cater. So it just kind of encompasses the whole community and allows us to get out and stretch our legs, so to speak, or our arms. For more information, go to Prestonsburg Tourism on Facebook.
