River Day
CHECK BACK FOR 2026 RIVER DAY INFORMATION. AS SOON AS IT IS PROVIDED TO ME, I WILL POST IT.
Canoe and Kayakers: Your day will begin by you transporting your vessels to the Thompson farm where you will gain entry to the river. We will allow an allotted amount of vessels on to the river, to avoid congestion and a safe successful trip down the mighty Rolling Fork!
Once entry by all is gained at the Thompson farm, the site will be shut down and all volunteers will proceed to various other parts of the events, No access will be allowed to Thompson Farm after that time. With the possibility of a larger turn out, please expect a staggered entry. Please understand there may be a delay as you arrive. We express that patience is maintained throughout the event.
As you arrive you will pay entry fee at gate . The entry fee will be : $10 per boat
