Re-printed from Missouri River Relief Heads up, racers. The 2026 Race to the Dome date has moved. New date: October 3 (Previously October 10) Race to the Dome is a fast, focused run on the Missouri River, finishing at the Capitol in Jefferson City. It’s a chance to get on the river, find your rhythm, and be part of a race day that’s all about moving downstream together. It’s also one of the most accessible ways to get into Missouri River racing. A great option for new paddlers looking to step up, and for veterans looking to close out the season with a strong finish. Nothing about the race itself changes. Same courses. Same beautiful finish line scene across the river from the dome. Same awesome paddling community! Registration will be open in August.
