Gail Timberlake from the Lady’s Slipper awarded the Lady’s Slipper Paddle to a canoeist.
The Sedalia Endeavor pulled out at Cartersville. and one other boat was also waiting to be pulled out early also.
Gradually the batteaux left on this long day headed to Maiden’s Landing for the last stop of this year’s festival.
