save the date(s)



Things are really shaping up for this summer's MidwestSUP Race series.  Below is a tentative list of races that will be held this summer, and I'm sure there will be more to come.

Most importantly, though, be sure to save the dates of August 11th and 12th 2012 for THE don't miss event of the summer, The Skyline SUP Series and Windy City Waterman Challenge.  As I hinted to at the end of last season, I wanted to do something more inclusive this year, so I've partnered with my friends at Windward Boardshop to host a weekend SUP festival right here in Chicago.  Stay tuned for more details...
