It’s time to level up! What started as a small crew has officially grown into a tradition.
We are heading back for the 4th Annual H²Ocoee River Rally, and this year, the gates are wide open for everyone. Whether you’re an open boater, a single-blader, a raft guide, or a kayaker — if you love the water and good vibes, you’re invited! 🤙
Note: This is an informal gathering with no official trips or river guides. Find a friend and tag along, join a big group, or just hang with your besties for some sweet catch-up time. 🤝
📅 When August 27 – 31, 2026 (The weekend before Labor Day)

Your Choice: While we'll be at AU, feel free to grab an AirBnB nearby or stay at your favorite local campground. 🏠
The Arrival: Some may come on Thursday others may come on Friday. 🚗
Typically, many of us will be deadheaded after work on Thursday night (Aug 27) to roll in late. 🌙
Feel free to beat us there!
🌊 The "Loose" Paddling Plan (Subject to river magic and heavy doses of whim! ✨)
Last year was a blast because we finally got to hit the Tellico for some summer Ledges laps! If it’s running again, we are definitely traveling over. Otherwise, it’s the Ocoee or whatever else happens to be in.
Historical Schedule of Events:
Friday: The Warm-Up. A chill Middle Ocoee lap. 🧊
Saturday: The Big One. Full Upper and Middle Ocoee sessions. 🤘
Sunday: Dealer’s Choice. Tellico? Ocoee? Whatever floats the boat! 🤷♂️
Monday: The Last Lap. A quick partial run before we hit the road. ✌️
Note: This is an informal gathering with no official trips or river guides. Find a friend and tag along, join a big group, or just hang with your besties for some sweet catch-up time. 🤝
📸 Capture the Magic I’ll be capturing as much as I can to share on The H² Experience YouTube channel, but I want to see your perspective too! Please share all the magic you catch—tag us and let’s show everyone how Year 4 went down. 🎥
🍻 Evening Vibes When the sun goes down, come find many of the folks at the AU Campground:
Campsite Hangs: Swapping stories and river tall tales. 🔥
The Bus Bar: We’ll be heading over for live local music, killer food, and cold drinks. 🎸🍔

If you are tired and beat: head on back to camp and get some Z’s. I know I do this too! 😴
