Originally a re-creation of the historic trip down the Susquehanna River by General James Clinton during the Revolutionary War, this well-known canoe regatta now has three divisions, one for professionals and two for amateurs. The professional race is the longest one-day race of its kind and covers a 70-mile stretch of the river between Cooperstown and Bainbridge, New York. The regatta extends for three and a half days over the Memorial Day weekend. In addition to the races, a carnival and many other activities for spectators are held at General Clinton Park. Discuss
