2002 Great Valley Fireman's Regatta


Our first canoe "race"





Location: Great Valley, NY to Salamanca, NY
Date: May 4, 2002





Launch
This is the beginning. Jen with me and her brothers just ahead of us. The campground ahead of us is where (almost) everyone camps for the weekend. We stayed at Allegany State Park.
Whadya know... it floats! I fiberglass patched Jimmy's blue canoe and this is the first test.
Traffic Jam!
Arrgghhhh! Traffic got a little backed up here. I was beginning to feel a little "river rage".
There were several homemade rafts, check out the bed raft.
Beer Stop
Here's what a typical "beer stop" looks like. There were 4 stops along the way to "refuel".
The End
