The Charles City Whitewater Challenge returns to the Cedar River riverfront this weekend, bringing three days of whitewater competition, free surf and boogie board clinics, family activities, food vendors, and opportunities for all ages to get involved. During a Community Conversation on KCHA, organizers Ginger Williams, Phoebe Pittman and Rob Pittman discussed how beginners can try river surfing for free, highlighted unique events like the Hooligan Open and Balls to the Wall competition, and shared details on activities for spectators including scavenger hunts, kids games and a free kayak giveaway.
