WOLFEBORO — The 46th annual Great Smith River Canoe and Kayak Race, sponsored by the Wolfeboro Lions Club, will take place on Saturday, May 21, at 1:15 p.m. at Allen Albee Beach. The four-mile race includes a quarter mile of class 2 white water rapids and two portages.
There are 19 classes to suit everyone, from novice to expert. Get those canoes, kayaks, and paddles ready, grab a friend or go it alone.
