For
28 years the National Paddling Film Festival has been hosting a competition
to determine the best in paddle sport videos and images. This competition
has provided the paddling community with a fun and profitable event to support
American Whitewater and river conservation. In that time, the NPFF has also
helped to raise the quality of paddle sport entertainment by providing recognition
of talent, along with important and useful feedback, for the artists who
make the show a possibility.
Entries
are now being accepted for the 2011 NPFF, so keep those cameras rolling
and enter early for your chance to win. Additional information about the
event will be posted at www.npff.org regularly so check back often for
all the latest updates.
