Don’t miss the RiverPark Festival this Saturday! New for the festival this year is the South Yadkin River Tube Race. The tube race will begin at 10:00 am at the Cooleemee Junction Wildlife Access area and end near the Dam at RiverPark. It is about a mile and a half course. Without any extra effort, the float in a tube takes about two and a half hours. Who knows what the winning time will be if the contestant uses a paddle. Registration for the tube race is $20 and there will be a limited number of tubes and life jackets for rent at the Cooleemee Junction Wildlife Access area. You may register on the morning of the race. The winner of the tube race will receive a large trophy with a bull on top and a $100 prize.
