Hometown Throwdown #1 (June 9, 2012)

Post by Jeremy M » Thu May 31, 2012 9:05 am

HERE IT IS!!!

You know you've been waiting for it...the 4th year of HTTD Series! The first event will be held June 9th, at 3:00 p.m. at the Rockport Ledge, (aka Ouachita River Whitewater Park)

The format will be a rodeo jam session, which basically means you sign up, playboat, and then take home some SWAG! Everyone that signs up should be taking home something.

HTTD is brought to you by WorldKayak.com and Ouachita Outdoor Outfitters.

Hope to see y'all there!

Thats exactly what HTTD is all about. Its barely a rodeo competition. Basically the scores mean nothing and the prizes are given away on a raffle style basis, so come one and come all...no crazy aerial tricks required!
