KAT Challenge
Keep our Waterways Clean!
Every year we encourage our kayaking community to help clean up our waterways. The last 2 years have been a huge success with the KAT Challenge! Almost every group participated in it that hit the water with us. We collected tons and TONS of trash last season we had over 1,000 people participating while on our trips!! Here's to another fantastic season of keeping Center Hill Lake Clean!
About the KAT Challenge: You will have an option to carry a bag along with you that we provide and pick up as much trash as you can. The person who collects the most on our trip will get a shiny new KAT Challenge Pin and their picture on our website here on our KAT Challenge Page. All who participate will get a special shout-out on our FB and Instagram pages for being protectors of our beautiful Tennessee waterways!
