as the money goes to Our Volunteer Fire Department and to cover event costs, clean-up, Porta-potties, Changing rooms and organization costs.

Some unpleasant comments are sometimes made regarding these nominal admission prices, yet the all of the above listed services just don't happen spontaneously by themselves, so please don't try to "shame" us with negative social media comments. Twenty bucks is a cheap date for potentially Friday night through Sunday afternoon.

The $20 covers parking (and camping if you desire) for the entire event, beginning on Friday afternoon, through Sunday. You will be given a ticket to display on your dash board, & You will be given a Wristband for a Complimentary cup of coffee at the KOLBE Cafe (corner of River Road and Byram Road). If Arriving Friday night March 19th, please pay in the morning when the fire department volunteers will be giving out tickets . The ticket will be required to re-enter the area.

Please display the ticket on your dash to re-enter the area.  Local paddlers, paddling club representatives, and the leadership of the Point Pleasant Fire Company have met to work through the parking issues of the last release. First and foremost, this communication is the product of those meetings. Please keep in mind that the parking fee is a fundraiser for the Point Pleasant Fire Company – an organization that serves the region with multiple services including river rescue.

Bucks County River Country, has been providing a landing spot for the boaters when they have completed the ride FOR DECADES. We are literally at the end of the Tohickon Creek where it empties into the Delaware river in Point Pleasant. River Country also provides parking and camping for the boaters.
