I can tell by the search engine and blog stat results that there are people searching for our schedule. This post will be brief because all you want to know is the schedule anyway! Yes, we have 10 recreational releases (not enough people have answered the contest post yet to call it anything else). The prize for the Name the Releases Contest is a seasons pass to the 10 recreational releases valued at $65 so leave comments or e-mail me at wkcc@dwave.net or reply to the contest postings on www.bsbs.org and www.rapidsriders.net

The information will be expanded on www.wausauwhitewater.org as soon as I develop those pages and as we develop the supporting documents like registration.
We continue to thank our sponsors: Wausau Insurance (presenting sponsor), Wausau Papers, Wausau Daily Herald, Wisconsin Public Service, MetLife, Community Foundation of North Central Wisconsin, Greenheck Fan Corporation, Siemens, Noodles, and CIty of Wausau as well as the numerous other supporting companies we highlight on the website. Without the corporate and community support, Wausau Whitewater cannot provide this exceptional schedule of whitewater activities.
If you’ve never been to Wausau, come see us this summer!
Hi!
If you could, it would be a good idea to update the
AWA site for the Wausau course:

I think Rob might be involved with them.

Good Idea, Doug! I’ve wondered about that for a long time. I guess it is time to take action. I will check with Rob!
