The Kenduskeag Stream Canoe Race is the largest paddling event in New England, held annually right here in our backyard in Bangor, Maine. Hosted by the Bangor Dept. of Parks & Recreation, the 16.5 mile race begins in the Town of Kenduskeag, winds through farm fields, neighborhoods, and downtown canals before terminating at the confluence of the Penobscot River in downtown Bangor. The race is seen as a rite of passage for locals, a fun outing for college students, and a serious competition for paddlers from all over the world.
Old Town’s connection to the race run deep. Not only are a majority of the canoes used in the race manufactured at our facility 15 miles north, the first race was co-founded by famous canoe designer and long-time Old Town employee Lew Gilman.
