    ROLLING DOWN THE RIVER — Boaters will once again be taking to the waters of the Piscataquis River for the Dover-Foxcroft Kiwanis’ 41st annual Piscataquis River Race on Saturday, April 27. The race starts at 11 a.m. at King Cummings Park in Guilford, with registration beforehand, and travels down river to the finish line across the street from Foxcroft Academy.

    The race ending will be a change from the last two years explained Woodworth. The race ending will be returning to Foxcroft Academy from the cove by the Piscataquis Chamber of Commerce.
    The annual Piscataquis River Race will once again benefit the Kiwanis Club’s children’s charities said Woodworth. This includes the FA and PCHS Key Clubs, Builders Club, backpack program, Boy Scouts, Christmas giving program and much more, he added.
    Registration for the race will start at 9 a.m. at King Cummings Park and end at 10:30 a.m. Early registration forms, as well as more information on the race, can be downloaded at the Kiwanis website at www.doverfoxcroftkiwanis.org. Registration fees are reduced for early registration.
