Race in the Finger Lakes- Sun October 4th

[Jeff]

Howdy!

Please join us for the second annual Seneca Monster race.  One more good one while you are fit and it ain't snowing.  

The canal course is lovely, with a bunch of protected wetlands on the south shore, and we think we've got a great home base provided by our friends at Fuzzy Guppies.  They have camping available as well.
