&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#160;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;Boat Requirements&lt;/b&gt;: &amp;#160;Teams are required to paddle canoes. &amp;#160;Individual participants may bring their choice of vessel.

&amp;#160;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;All participants will receive a tech t-shirt &amp;amp; additional SWAG.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: center"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Questions? &amp;#160;&lt;/b&gt;Email&lt;b&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/b&gt;Race Director &lt;a href="mailto:sarahrhusser@gmail.com"&gt;Sarah Husser&lt;/a&gt;&amp;#160;or call&amp;#160;(706) 296-7103.&lt;/div&gt;
