The Ledyard Canoe Club at Dartmouth College in New Hampshire is once again hosting Riverfest, with this year's dates set as April 20th - April 22nd. Riverfest is an annual paddling festival including two races, a conservation-themed film screening, and a party. The Mascoma Slalom is set for Saturday, and the Wells River Rumble is on Sunday. More information about race registration will appear on the Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/LCCRiverfest/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

This year, Ledyard is also hosting the 2nd Dartmouth Explorers Symposium after the Slalom. It will feature small talks on topics ranging from the 1972 Munich Olympics to the first descent of the Yangtze Gorge. Should be some great programming for post-boating, and lots of stories of kayaking feats from the 1970s-Present. We are asking people to register on our event page if they plan on attending, just so we can get a general head count. (It's a free event). You'll also find more information about the Symposium and the weekend's programming on there. http://dartmouth.imodules.com/explorersymposium" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
