2009 RiverRun Results
The 36th Pewaukee Kiwanis RiverRun was held Saturday, April 25th. Unseasonably warm temps coaxed paddlers to the event in spite of an intimidating forecast. Showers were sporadic during registration followed by a more persistent rain and cooling temps. In spite of the weather, 136 boats participated. River conditions were good making for fast completion times.
The 6-mile race ends at Frame Park, Waukesha with the final mile on the Fox River. The event hosted by the Pewaukee Kiwanis raises money for local charities and especially children, supporting the food pantry, high school scholarships, summer camp for disabled kids and many others.
Unclaimed trophies can be picked up at Koepp Realty, Oakton and Wisconsin Avenues, Pewaukee during normal business hours. Some lost items can also be claimed there.
Thanks to supporters and participants. A good but soggy time was had by all.
