Bank, will be holding Central Oregon's largest sporting event, the 28th Annual
U.S. Bank
Pole Pedal Paddle, May 15, 2004. The U.S. Bank Pole Pedal Paddle is the largest

the Red Chair with the exchange point to cross-country at the West Village Lodge

Deschutes River,
approximately 8 km followed by a 2 mile river stage, this time between the new
