The releases are from the Knightville and Littleville Dams. Knightville is on the North Branch. Littleville is on the Middle Branch. The novice race on Saturday starts on the West Branch in Huntington. The expert race on Sunday starts below the Knightville Dam on North Branch. All very confusing, but here's the race map.

I think most people run the Knightville section – put in below the Knightville Dam, and take out at the gazebo on Rt. 20. That’s what I did last year.

Sunday is Palm Sunday, so “river church” may need to take a back seat to Church. Then again, if I go to Mass Saturday night, I may be able to paddle Sunday, and my knee is starting to feel better...
