Seriously Social Rafting is simply fun in a whitewater raft on the Tarawera River in Kawerau.

You need a crew of 6 paddlers for your raft and a steersman is provided. All of your safety gear is included in the entry fee.

The format is two time trials through a 2km stretch of whitewater (grade 2), your best times are recorded and you are then placed in a head 2 head knockouts competition with slalom gates thrown in to make it more interesting.

There are two sets of finals which guarantees each team at least 4 runs down the river with the finalist having a 5th run.

The grand champs have their name etched on the SS Rafting trophy as well as free entry into the next race to be held in Kawerau. There is also the awesome spot prize for one lucky team for a fully paid Kaituna River raft trip in Rotorua. Plus loads of other wicked spot prizes!

This comp is seriously good fun and seriously great value for money.

Minimum age is 13. Email SocialRafting@hotmail.com.
