About us
Work's over - let's play! We love to paddle, be it kayak, SUP (stand up paddleboards), canoe, outrigger canoe (OC1, OC2, etc.), even sculling, rowing, or land paddling. Forget the daily grind and get on the water with us in Southern Utah. See you at the lakes!
Organizers Bill and Michelle Ennis own/operate rental fleets at Gunlock State Park and Quail Creek State Park. They have been paddling these waters for over a decade and have thousands of hours logged and have paddled at all times of the year.
Please be considerate and take care of yourself by having and actively using appropriate, USCG-approved safety equipment. Remember, you are paddling at your own risk.

Kayak or SUP for Kokopelli Triathlon
Sand Hollow State Park, Head South on I-15. Exit 16 Hurricane/Zion National Park. Drive 5 miles to Sand Hollow Parkway. Turn Right. Drive 4 miles to par, Hurricane, UT, USAnother fine triathlon by BBSC Tri. This and other triathlons are listed here: https://bbscendurance.com/tri/
We show up to paddle the swim course and be a floating aid station of sorts for the swimmers. Once the last athlete is out, we wait for an all-clear before exiting. There will be an orientation meeting on the ramp before we take assignments and get in the water.
Plan to be on-site at 6:30am. Let the gate staff at Sand Hollow State Park know you are arriving to help lifeguard the triathlon. You should be allowed to enter at no charge.
As we approach the date, I'll update this listing with more information.
A light brunch and hydration are provided.
If you'd like to lifeguard and need a kayak or board, let me know.

Fun Paddle for a Triathlon - Quail Creek State Park
Dig Paddlesports at Quail Creek, 472 N 5300 West, Hurricane, ut, USSouthern Utah Triathlon is BACK! Swim starts at 8:00am. Come and help support swimmers on the water as a volunteer. It's meaningful work, and we're also helping our county Search and Rescue Dive Team (SAR) raise funds for their operations. You will be a resting stop for athletes to stretch, get their bearings, take a breath... as long as you don't advance them in the course! :)
Kayaks provided by Dig Paddlesports for volunteers. There should be a shirt and some munchies for you from the triathlon, as well.
SAR will provide direction for on-water volunteers. PFDs required and provided for all Dig kayak or paddleboard use. I'll just have you sign a waiver. Gear is on our beach.
Orientation meeting at the boat ramp at 7:30 am. Try to be there by 7:15 at the Dig shop. We'll have you park on the shore by our white trailer, as we did last year, IF you want to. It's not required, but our parking tends to get gobbled up by triathletes early in the day. We should be done by 9:00 - 9:30.
No need to demonstrate swimming capability at this one, but self-check; make sure you are able to get back into your own vessel, unassisted.
See you at Quail Creek State Park!
