UP THE CREEK – The Shoreham Raft Race

It’s almost time for UP THE CREEK The Shoreham Raft Race!

The Raft Race is the flagship race and a team event for a minimum of four people and a maximum of eight. You will need to build your own raft and source your own materials and submit to a safety check before the start of the race. Give your team a name and optional fancy dress for extra prizes.

The Race will start at 2.00 pm at Sussex Yacht Club following a route across the River Adur and back to finish in front of Coronation Green.

Entry to the race is £10 per person.

On Saturday 16th July the River Adur will be inundated with wacky contraptions and innovative floatation devices battling it out to reach the finish line – or even just stay afloat! We are also running a Bridge-to-Bridge fun SUP Race for paddleboarders to participate in, along with SUP taster sessions.

The proceeds of this fantastic fundraising event will be benefitting some amazing local good causes; Friends of Herons Dale Primary School, Sussex Sailability, St Barnabas House, and Turning Tides.

You don’t need to enter the race to experience the fun! The whole community is welcome to cheer along the competitors, enjoy the entertainment from Shoreham Allstars and indulge in the food and refreshments from vendors supporting the event on Coronation Green.

It’s not too late to get involved in the action; go to www.shorehamraftrace.co.uk for all the information, along with how to enter your raft or sign up to the SUP activities.
