Boats in the Breaks - Canoe and Kayak RaceCelebrating 20 years of the Upper Missouri River Breaks National Monument

 

June 9, 2021



Celebrate the 20th anniversary of the Upper Missouri River Breaks National Monument by joining the Friends of the Missouri Breaks Monument’s Boats in the Breaks canoe and kayak race on Saturday, July 17, 2021. Paddle 20 miles of Montana’s Wild and Scenic Missouri River from Fort Benton to Wood Bottom Recreation Area while supporting the Friends’ efforts to protect and preserve the monument.

Kick back and relax after the race at the Boats, Brews and Blues event in historic Fort Benton. This annual event, hosted by our partners at ChoCo Fun, includes a Montana craft brewfest and a free community concert featuring The Two Tracks, The Workers and Molly & Peter Wilson.

Racers can compete solo or in teams of two in canoes or kayaks. Awards will be given to the top three finishers in the solo and pair categories. Space is limited, so register now at https://runsignup.com/Race/Info/MT/FortBenton/BoatsintheBreaks or by visiting our website at missouribreaks.org. Registration deadline is June 30, 2021.


The registration fee per canoe or kayak is $35 for solo and $50 for pairs. This event is a fundraiser for the Friends, which also turned 20 this year. The Friends of the Missouri Breaks Monument protects and preserves the monument through its work in stewardship, education and advocacy.

Looking for a different way to participate? We are in need of volunteers to help with a variety of duties on race day, including registration, parking attendants, safety officers and more. Please sign up to volunteer by emailing info@missouribreaks.org.
