The spirit of Kelp Kabobs is to invite people to swim bike and run for free and for fun. We want to remind people that Triathlons are fun, they're about community and they're not as scary as you think. You are welcome to swim, bike and run or any combo of the three you want to do. As a FREE event, registration is limited! Registration opens June 1! Secure your spot:
