About The EventThe City of Eagle Pass Main Street Program in conjunction with Epi's Canoe & Kayak Team LLC along with Academy Sports & Outdoors have partnered up to plan a day of excitement. This 4th of July weekend on Saturday July 2, 2016 from 9:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. the river will be buzzing with activity that includes water recreational sports. Yes, in our very own backyard water resource, the Rio Grande River. For many years people have discussed the possibility of creating a great paddling destination out of our very own portion of the Rio Grande River. The opportunity has finally presented itself. Bring your family, your buddies, your BFF's and have an awesome time navigating the waters of our river. Plus compete for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place prizes. Send us an email to [email protected] and let us know what race you would like for us to sign you up for. Each race will have an entry fee of $10.00 per person. Check schedule below.
