Just as wild and just as wacky! The Clearwater Canoe Regatta 2012 is returning once again. Save the dates of Friday, Sept. 7 and Saturday, Sept. 8. Keep an eye out on www.clearwatercanoeregatta.com for all the events and activities. Please take special note there will be a route change for the Rotary Relay Challenge: Pound, Pedal, And Paddle.

Although there will be plenty of fun stuff at the Regatta, one event that we are very pleased to offer again is the Golden Gal award. This award is to honor a pioneer woman who has excelled in her volunteer contribution to the community. Century 21 Rison Realty is sponsoring the award once again.

Nominations are being accepted until Friday, Aug. 31. The award will be presented at 6.30 at Dutch Lake on Friday, Sept. 7. If you have someone in mind, please submit a brief summary of why your candidate should be chosen as the 2012 Regatta Golden Gal.

Our community has been very fortunate to have several women volunteer their time and this part of the regatta is to pay tribute to their efforts and their legacy.

We look forward to receiving input from the community.
