Organiser's Description

Once again the _RACES_ must go on ... the tail water from the spill way is still shut down for maintenance on the Dam. Therefore, the races will be at the West Fork of the Whitewater River. Though the races might look different, they will still be just as much fun!

The RECREATION RACE will launch northwest of the town of Brookville at Eagle Beach and participants will proceed down the Whitewater River to Morgan's Canoe & Livery (3 miles).

The BIATHLON AND CHAMPIONSHIP RACES will launch from Morgan's Canoe & Livery and end at Cedar Grove.

All donations received will be distributed to local 501.c.3 charities in Franklin County!
