Event Information:

The Stonycreek Rendezvous is an annual whitewater festival hosted by the Benscreek Canoe Club in Johnstown, Pennsylvania and a long time Hoosier favorite whitewater destination. The event is held at Greenhouse Park, the takeout for the Stoneycreek run so you just hoist your boat on a shoulder and walk to your campsite!  Benscreek CC guided the construction of two surf and play waves, for fun and competition inside the creek & it’s even available at night under the lights 100ft from the fest. The fest is held over three days in May (many Hoosiers will drive Thursday & camp late at the park that night to be ready to paddle in the afternoon on Friday). During the three days of the event, there is live music, food and gear vendors, a whitewater rodeo, downriver race, daily whitewater releases into the Stonycreek from the Quemahoning Dam.
