The Des Plaines River Canoe Marathon, founded in 1957 by Ralph Frese, is the second oldest continual canoe race in the United States.

Over 2000 participants are grouped in classes for juniors to masters, men, women, mixed, and adult-child. All types of canoes, including recreation or aluminum canoes, competition cruisers, sea kayaks, and down river kayaks, are welcome.

It was a great time with the 4 members:Bahar, Bethany, Nick Schmidt, Ryan.
