From Town Manager Neal Beets's Fast Facts of Friday, April 25, 2014, comes information about the Willimantic Riverfest sponsored by Willimantic Whitewater Partnership.
"The Willimantic Whitewater Partnership is sponsoring the Willimantic RiverFest again this year on Saturday, May 17. Events include a paddle from the Eagleville Dam to Willimantic, bike rides to the RiverFest site on Bridge Street, a fishing derby, and a whitewater kayak demonstration. There will also be live music, food, and kid games. Go the Whitewater's website for more information: http://www.willimanticwhitewater.org/content/more-riverfest-information.
This information is posted by Peter Leeds, who can be found on Facebook at Not Just The Sports Guy, but who readily admits that fast or slow water is all the same to him, and not his thing at all. Peter is an avowed Willi-phile, though, and will be visiting the Riverfest.
