Fast And Clean follows a group of paddlers attempting to make the US Canoe/Kayak Slalom team to be able to compete in the 1979 World Championships held in Jonquiere, Canada. It captures the essence of the sport in the late 70’s and early 80’s. For paddlers of later generations it inspired them to join and compete in the sport. Russ Nichols, the original producer and a lot of the folks depicted in the film will be attending the Premier. We’re making an effort to identify people in the film to invite, but please pass this on to people you know who might be interested in attending these events.

The link for the Tickets is: https://americancanoe.org/fast-and-clean/ (Only 70 tickets left)

Tickets will be $25 and will be used to pay for the venue and some food, with any excess funds going to the Slalom Team fund. There are only 200 seats in the theater, so get your ticket early!
