Paddlemania comes to the Olympics today!  Kayak slalom meets roller derby.  Rolando Arrieta, National Public Radio reporter and CCC member, posted this article yesterday.  Give it a read and listen. Watch the carnage.  Then, consider calling Tom Womble and suggesting Week of Rivers add a new event next year.

Evy Leibfarth, our bronze goddess, is also featured in the story.
