The Inlet Spring Regatta is thrilled to announce that K+S Potash Canada has renewed its support for the 2025 event! A long-standing partner of the regatta, K+S Potash Canada has been instrumental in helping us create an unforgettable experience for paddlers and spectators alike.

Their continued commitment not only strengthens the event but also highlights their dedication to supporting community-driven initiatives and fostering the spirit of teamwork. We are grateful for their partnership as we prepare to welcome teams back to the water on April 19, 2025.

K+S Potash Canada specializes in extracting potash crude salt, which is processed into three types of potassium chloride. These products are used as natural fertilizers and compacted for various industrial applications. Since 2017, Port Moody has been home to their state-of-the-art storage and transshipment facility, reinforcing their strong ties to the community.

“K+S Potash Canada is honoured to be a supporting partner of the Inlet Spring Regatta again in 2025, and we thank the organizers, Nothin’ Dragon for having us back. Our team looks forward to meeting folks from the community, cheering on the paddlers, enjoying the vendors and especially thanking the many volunteers who make the event a success. It is sure to be a great day,” said Paige Gignac, Community Investment Specialist, K+S Potash Canada.
