Race organizer William Brock says it is currently the second biggest Canoe mara- thon in the province. Only London hosts a larger field he claims. The race is as a major fund raiser by Lake Scugog Historical Society towards its Museum. Each entrant collects sponsers and turns over the money to the Society and there is a prize offered for the most money collected. Anyone who enters automatically receives a crest. The LSHS also raffles off a canoe. It is one of the major expenses , which Mr. Brock estimated could reach $1500. The race started 12 years ago with a scant field of 35 canoes and rose to a record' crowd of 203 in 1978. Enroll- ment was down two years ago but went up again last season. The weather obviously has a lot to do with the number of participants. "When you get a good day, you get a good crowd," he said. Taken over the course of its history, the organizer estimated the average field to be around 130 canoes. But taken over the past five years only, which he feels is more significant, the average would be closer to 180. This year will mark the second time the organizers have put in a tourists class for the day. Anyone can enter this class, which is not considered a race by itself. The participants are free to choose their own course and can tackle it at their own leisurely pace, even stopping to fish if they so desire. There were '"'six or seven" 416-985-2618 TERRA STEEL AFFORDABLE BUILDING SYSTEMS FOR FARM AND INDUSTRY MURDOCK R. BELAIR R.R.2 SEAGRAVE, ONT. entries in it last spring. A new wrinkle this time around will be the Men's 18 feet 6 inch Open race. This race starts at the waterfront along the lake at Port Perry and makes a round trip to the Seagrave bridge. Asked if it were an 'elitists' race, Mr. Brock replied 'No, 1 wouldn't use the word "elitist," but did call it a 'special class for people interested in going on to provincial and national races." The race has received the verbal sanction of the Ontario Marathon Canoe Racing Association and "appropriate categories" are eligible for prizes and points-on the annual circuit. "It's a good physical exercise," stated Mr. Brock, "anyone in good shape can do it. One doesn't have to hurry through it, It's a fun thing." Over the years, the race has spawned strong local talent. Ray Desautels of Seagrave, Rudy Jammer, and the Haugens of Port Perry have all gone on to other competitions. The race information and entry forms can be picked-up at the Port Perry Star or the High School library. They are usually entered the day before or the morning of the race. sapavis dine eerie ee The Directors & Members of PORT PERRY COMMUNITY J CURLING CLUB } # wish to thank the following Ed 2) Bonspiel Sponsors for their 2 very successful 1980-81 Curling Season: - C2 ~w Lake Scugog Lumber Company Ltd. / DR Utica Farm Equipment Limited Laut +>. oop George Stone Real Estate Ltd.
