CAY
UGA: “We were the first girls to ever do the portage. We started in first and Piper and I did a great job staying in the lead.” –Sophie L
MOHAWK: “I ran the Farm House to White’s Road (leg). It was really wet, and I had a bad bruise on my leg, but I ran it out and it was really close when I finished” –Noah G
ONONDAGA: “We didn’t do too well with the
message. It had only one word when I got it. I thought about maybe adding some but figured I would let someone else do it” – Peter B
SENECA: “It wasn’t too hard but it was kind of tricky” – Ireland (discussing her role as a canoe racer)
TUSCARORA: “I got there first, even though there were some real fast guys doing it!” – Prisca (opening leg)
