Our Story

The Revelstoke Paddlesport Association is a not-for-profit society created to develop, provide, and promote recreational and competitive paddle sports, activities, and events in and around the city of Revelstoke. Founded by Bill Pollock in the winter of 2017, with the initial goal to bring the David Thompson Paddlesport Classic to life.
