May 9, 2008

Angel Kiss Foundation is hosting its 4th Annual Whitewater Raft and Music Festival on June 21 at Reno’s Wingfield Park from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. The Festival is the single largest fundraiser for the nonprofit organization which supports families in northern Nevada and the eastern Sierras who have children with cancer.

Participants of the Whitewater Raft race can expect to participate in some of the best whitewater rafting available in northern Nevada. There are seven different rafting categories for all levels of rafters.

In addition to the raft race, the day's events include six local bands playing a variety of music genres.

Music by:
Kate Cotter,
Smokin Joe Banana
Jason King Band
Bad Neighbors
Whiskey Haulers
Drinking with Clowns

Food and Beverages
Vista Grille
Great Basin Brewery

Activities
"Garden of Hope" offering unique flowers, created by local artists and children,
a raffle for gift packages by local merchants,
sponsor booths and other family fun.

The 2007 Whitewater Raft and Music Festival raised more than $100,000 for local families that have children with cancer and with this year’s snowfall, the event is expected to draw even bigger crowds.
