The Canoe Race for June 13th has been postponed.
We have looked at the water levels and have decided to postpone Canoe Cedarloo due
to at or near flood level stages – even though the water is slightly receding.
We will be rescheduling the race, so watch for future announcements. Our main
concern is the participant’s safety and we aren’t willing to risk that.
Stay tuned for more information.
