Beginner Aluminum

Beginner Aluminum Teams are for participants with little or no canoe racing experience. Beginner team members may not have raced previously in the White River Canoe Race and may only enter this class one year only. Beginning teams will race only the first, fourth and eighth legs of the race. This division may be suitable for younger team members or inexperienced teams with only four team members that had originally planned to race a Novice division.

Novice Aluminum

Novice Aluminum Teams may be teams participating for the first time in the White River Canoe Race or teams (or team members) which have not placed (3rd place or higher) in any division at the race in previous years. Novice teams are encouraged to do their best as they are eligible for the Aluminum Overall Traveling Trophy in their class (Girl's, Boy's, and Co-ed) which will be awarded to the team with the lowest accumulative time for the race.

Advanced Aluminum

Advanced Aluminum Teams are typically teams that have a high level of proficiency in a canoe and perhaps have either raced in the White River Canoe Race before or competed in other canoeing events. Normally, the top tier of this division consists of teams that train extensively for this race.
