Fantastic End to a Great Season for Nikki Rekman Sales

We had a fantastic weekend in Naramata, BC at the 1st Annual Naramata Paddle Regatta.  

The event was hosted by Werner dealer,Sun n Sup.  Eileen and Peter were fantastic hosts along with their friends, Linda and Mike at the Sandy Beach Lodge and Resort.  

Folks traveled from throughout BC to attend the event including other Werner dealers, Just Liquid Sports from Cranbrook, BC and Kalavida Surf Shop from Vernon, BC.  

Werner booth - fantastic spot on Okanagan Lake

The location was amazing on gorgeous Okanagan Lake and the weather was perfect for this SUP event open to paddlers of all abilities.  

Lots of fun races, some with costumes others where paddlers all used the same board and same paddle. (THANKS Werner!!)  It was also great to see folks of all ages, kid’s, silver-haired beauties and everyone in between.

This is a fun, family-oriented, no pressure event that we will most definitely be supporting again next season.
