2018 Slalom Kayak Racing Fund
Hey all, Evy here! I created this fundraiser to help pay for my canoe slalom training and racing expenses during 2018. To start the season, I'll be going to sunny Australia to train and compete in the Australian Open. This summer, I'll return to Europe to defend my title in the ECA Junior World Cup races in Italy, Slovenia, Austria, Germany and Slovakia.
I'm looking forward to a great year of paddling - but can't do it without your help. Any level of support you can offer makes a huge difference! Please consider sharing this campaign with your friends and family to help spread the word! Thank you so much!
With gratitude,
Evy

Had lots of fun at Age Group Nationals in Idaho - came in first in K1W, C1W and C2 mixed! More recently, I had a great time competing in the inaugural Ocoee River Championships, where I won K1W & C1W slalom, plus freestyle and boatercross! Next stop: U.S. Nationals in Washington, D.C. in early October, then training in La Seu D'Urgell, Spain to practice for next year's World Championships and Olympic Qualifier.
