PADDLEFEST REMINDER

It happens this Friday and Saturday on the Ohio River near
Cincinnati!

PADDLEFEST: The Ohio River Way is holding its annual Paddlefest at Four
Seasons Marina on 4609 Kellogg Ave., July 9 and 10. The fest starts with a
Paddlers' Party & Expo at Four Seasons from 4-11 p.m. Saturday's races
include the signature "2,000 Paddles" 6-mile trip, an event that drew
nearly 1,000 people in 600 canoes last year. Barge traffic is halted by
the Coast Guard to preserve a safe and scenic trip for its paddlers.

Paddlefest also features a 14-mile pro race, the only professional canoe
marathon on the Ohio River, and a $3,000 purse for its winners. The annual
9-mile Amateur Canoe branches into the Little Miami River from the Ohio.
