Saturday
Looking for a fun adventure? Register for the Moose River Canoe and Kayak Race where you will paddle Brassua Lake and the Moose River in Rockwood, finishing at the Kineo Docks in Rockwood Village. This race is part of the MaCKRO:Maine Canoe & Kayak Racing Organization Flatwater Points Series. There are special classes for wooden rib & plank canoes in Memory of Fred Reckards, Custom Canoe Builder. If you’re thinking you’re alittle too young to try the whole race, a shorter junior course is available too! The race is an 8 mile course, mostly flat water with one portage at the Brassua Dam. There are also two class II rapids on the Lower Moose River so be ready for those!
A registration fee of $15, or $10 if you pre-register is required to participate. Sign in is from 8-10AM at the Rockwood Community Center. Registration includes trophies from Shaw & Tenney and a BBQ at the finish line. The race will start at 11AM at the Brassua Lake boat launch so don’t be late! All proceeds from the race go to benches and improvements to the Kineo docks in Memory of Tunney King Sr!
Don’t canoe or kayak? Not to worry! It’s great fun to watch and enjoy the activities and awards ceremony. There will be kids activities at the finish line from approximately 12-2. The bounce house will be waiting and the moose will be out and about boating and saying hey!
