The Golden Community Rodeo Series will embark on its 5th annual whitewater kayak rodeo series in the summer of 2007. The GCRS is a grass roots effort that brings together whitewater enthusiasts, local residents and businesses, and industry representatives to participate in this community event. The GCRS is organized, managed, and run exclusively by local volunteers whose common characteristic is the hope that all levels of boaters will feel welcomed at this event – from the meekest “newbie” to the local heroes. Our goal is to provide fun events where everyone is welcome, and everyone is supported.

Each year this series has grown, with each event attended by 40+ paddlers and 50+ spectators. The original organizers worked hard to get the local community involved and have encouraged all paddlers to take ownership of this event by competing and working to plan and organize the event. The results are tremendous! We now have a supportive group of local boaters who are working hard to put together the logistics and gather prizes to offer to our competitors and spectators.
