The first race of the day will be the Millrace Massacre which will commence at high noon. The length requirement for the race is 9’ and under, no exceptions. Must be a plastic boat. A set course will be shown to the competitors the day of the race. The course will be water level dependent. It will start at the top of Millrace and end in the vicinity of Fisherman’s Rock. The course will be outlined with markers showing all the required eddies/routes the racers must go through. With this being a time trial event, speed is going to be the name of the game. The top racer in the Men’s and Women’s class will take home the CASH. Iceman Championships

The Iceman is going to be a mass start race with all the competitors starting in a line up. The race will start at the red pier and will run through Millrace and down to the Zoo Bridge. Once to the Bridge racers will go around the bridge and head back to the sandy beach where they are required to hike there boats back up the portage trail. At the top the racers will reenter the water and run Millrace again. It is then that the racers will abandon ship above the Mosh Pit and swim with their kayaks back to the sandy beach. In the Iceman you can paddle whatever boat you may like whether it is a traditional whitewater kayak or if it is a sea kayak. The longer the better!
