In Rotterdam on the Mohawk River , Linda and Bob Cooley put on the Barge Chaser race. Complete results are not available yet but the fastest boat was Dave Wiltey in Open Kayak. The top C2 was the up and coming duo of Patrick Madden and Eric Seyse. Bruce Lee and Cathy Lipski took the top spot in Mixed.

Next week is the 31st Annual Adirondack Canoe Classic. This is one of the high points of the racing season, with hundreds of paddlers from around the nation participating in a 3 day, 90 mile race through the heart of the largest state park in the United States. NYMCRA wishes good luck, safe paddling, and a good time to all racers starting off in Old Forge this upcoming Friday morning!
