Hello paddlers!
Wow! What a great race and post race party!! Thanks to all of you for making it happen, I had a blast!
Thanks to my volunteers, Mike and Susan Ryan for their “we know what we’re doing go away Chuck” attitude and help, and thanks to Chris Hawes for manning the grill, and everyone who helped me load/unload boats on the trailer. For pictures of the event click on this article heading.

Short race-Dominated by Tony “The Bronx Avenger” Rodriguez, this race featured a full slate of first time racers, w/the exception of Sarah Conley. Tony was first, followed by Team Skinny Chicks, consisting of Annette Conley and Shannon Thompson. Close behind were Sarah “Mad Dog” Conley, Henry “the iceman” Thompson, and Anna “the knife” Thompson. All did a great showing for their first race and showed a lot of heart! Hope we see them again.
