Now is also the time to be training for next year - so we have an article about training and one about a training camp to be held in mid-to-late November.

Finally, we have news from the Ohiopyle "Over-the-Falls" race that was held on August 26th. The good news is that Geoff Calhoun took top honors in the race. The bad news is that he dislocated his shoulder a couple days ago, so he will be out of paddling for a while. Geoff, we all wish you a complete and speedy recovery.
