On May 11, 2002 the first sanctioned race of the season was held on the Annapolis River. Race start was at Lawrencetown with the finish at Bridgetown. The Pro class raced 20 km with a 4 km upstream section. All remaining classes raced 12 km.

This was a new course and proved to be a good one. Once again the Annapolis Valley Ground Search and Rescue along with John and Christine Skaling organized the race with all proceeds going to the Ground Search and Rescue.

A Big Thanks for all their hard work. On July 6 the same team will be organizing the Nictaux Canal Race. Be sure to take in this event!!
