Kayaking, Music and Festivities in Wingfield Park
On the second weekend in May for the past eight years the Reno River Festival is held at the beautiful Wingfield Park on the Truckee River.
Wingfield Park lies in the heart of downtown Reno where people can come to relax and stroll by the water along the Riverwalk.
In the hot summer months, the Truckee River Whitewater Park provides a water playground for people of all ages to cool off by taking a dip or floating along on tubes.
For the more adventuresome there is kayaking on the class II or III rapids.
The River Festival has become America's premier whitewater event, attracting around 40,000 people who come out to enjoy the festivities. Included with the paddle sports industry's top whitewater events are vendors with goods and services of food, drinks and the latest outdoor products, to bands performing at the Wingfield Park Amphitheater. And best of all, admission is free!
The action packed events over the three days include the Open Competition, the Slalom Competition, Run Amuck Relay Race, Whitewater Clinics, Stand-Up Paddleboard and Boatercross.
All during the River Festival in downtown Reno, bars, casinos and nightclubs will be open to welcome in the revelers.
What
an exciting and interesting photo-adventure this day has been. I love
it when I am drawn to an area and not knowing what to expect I get
treated to new experiences.

Photography places me in the moment where I can share that moment in time. It becomes a life story as represented by my interaction with the scene. The happiness and beauty or the sorrow and strife; how I focus leaves a lasting impression that might touch the viewer on a spiritual level.
