SELCO Pole Pedal Paddle

Kayaks at the Pole Pedal Paddle

A Central Oregon tradition

The 2025 Pole Pedal Paddle is in the books after another successful year! Competitors from across the region once again conquered the race from Mt. Bachelor to Bend, featuring courses on snow, land, and water. Let’s not forget about the little ones, as the Mini-PPP also delivered, showcasing the skills of K-5TH-grade kids on their own obstacle course. We’re proud to sponsor the PPP, which brings communities together for a great cause.

Joining in the fun

As a proud sponsor of the PPP, we make it a point to be part of the experience—on and off the course. This year, 20 SELCO team members joined the race, forming 6 teams and competed alongside fellow participants. At the finish line we hosted a lively booth featuring everything from cowbells and a button-making station to a prize wheel the whole family could enjoy. From racing to rallying at the finish line, the 2025 PPP brought great energy, and we loved every minute of it.
