The Black River Festival is back and it's going to be bigger than ever. With reliable flow all year round, the Black River is the East Coast's premier summer whitewater destination. Boasting a river run with over a dozen class III and IV rapids, world class playboating, and several waterfalls, there is something for everyone on Watertown, New York's Black River.

   This will be the 10th anniversary of the Black River Festival's infamous theme party. A band has been booked and the theme has been chosen. This will surely be the party of the year.

   There will be events held and fabulous prizes will be awarded. Black River events are always a spectacle and a joy for competitors and spectators alike.

   Whitewater rafting is available so bring your non-boating friends. The Black River is an incredibly fun rafting river that features a rafting playhole where customers are given the option of taking a rowdy surf that often ends in a swim into the warm, calm pool below.

   Plans are still in the works so check back often and block off the date
