Dear Paddle & Portage Participants and Volunteers,
We regret to inform you that we have made the difficult decision not to hold the Paddle and Portage event. While we understand that this news will come as a disappointment, we want to assure you that we did not come to this decision lightly.
After reviewing participation numbers and associated costs, we believe that it would not be feasible to host the event this year. We would like to express our gratitude to all the participants, volunteers and sponsors who have enjoyed and given their time and resources for the success of this event.
So, while it is bittersweet to say goodbye to something that has been in the fabric of Madison for over 40 years, we find comfort in the memories, stories and history that have surround the Paddle and Portage event in Madison.
