Huge thank you to the team of volunteers including the Howard and Milesburg Fire Companies, the US Coast Guard Auxillary, National Guard Boat, Rebbeca Holler from Trout Unlimited, Vana Dainty for all the PR/Advertising, Lock Haven University Students and Staff, fellow paddlers, and all the great members of the Beech Creek Watershed Association that made this event happen. Bald Eagle State Park provided us with a great venue for the event and kudos to their staff from the maintenance folks who had the grounds picture perfect to Tracy Zupich and John Ferrara who ensured the event was top notch in many ways.
We can't put this race on without our sponsors so please visit their businesses and organizations when you can!

What is the Brick Town Trail?
Brick Town Trail Brochure Executive SummaryAbout the Brick Town Challenge
The BrickTown Challenge is a family oriented canoe and kayak race to publicize the efforts of many groups to build a 14 mile rail/trail that connects Beech Creek Borough, Bald Eagle State Park, Howard Borough, and the PHMC site at Curtin Village. The Beech Creek Watershed Association proposed the idea of a greenway along the Beech Creek several years ago. The idea evolved into the Brick Town trail to promote the rich brick making history of the towns along the trail. The Beech Creek Watershed Association is the major sponsor of the event. All proceeds from the event will go towards the building of the Brick Town Trail. 2009 funds are being used to assess a bridge crossing at Maple Avenue, the proverbial weakest link of the trail system. We are making this trail a reality one link at a time!Maps
