We appreciate your feedback!

As part of the 70th running of the Westfield River Wildwater Races, we are the documenting the history of the race. We will be creating a significant record of this, the country's oldest whitewater canoe and kayak race.

The info from this survey will be used in a presentation at Stanton Hall in Huntington on 4/3 at 6:30PM called Legends of Racing. Mark your calendars.

When we are completed with this project -- which will include videotaped interviews with some racers -- the information will be archived and kept for posterity. Thank you for your input!
