Come celebrate whitewater releases on the Deerfield River! On water full day clinics (must pre-register), boat demos, reps, tents, food, games, and evening music and festivities at Berkshire East, it’s all here!
Enjoy a weekend of paddling on the Deerfield River and then join us at Deerfield RiverFest for Live Music with Lakeside Drive from 5pm – 10pm, paddlesports vendors, and a silent auction to benefit American Whitewater’s river conservation and recreation access work throughout the northeast.
American Whitewater holds three large fundraising events per season, and we are fortunate to have one of them right here on the Deerfield River. The Deerfield RiverFest is a celebration of cooperative dam re-licensing legislature that provides recreational whitewater releases that satisfies the needs of all water users. This is one of the biggest gatherings of whitewater paddlers in the Northeast! Help support the organization that helps makes paddling possible all across the country!
