The canoe/kayak race committee is seeking designs for the 56th Annual Manchester River Raisin Canoe/Kayak Race, to be held on Sunday, May 15. The winner will receive four of the t-shirts in the sizes they specify or a $50 gift certificate to Over the Edge. Entries are due April 1 and can be emailed to canoe.kayak.race.2022@gmail.com or dropped off at the Sharon Valley Bicycle Shop at 108 E. Main St., Manchester, or mailed to Manchester Music Boosters, PO Box 803, Manchester, MI, 48158. The canoe/kayak race committee will choose the winner. 

We are looking for something unique and original to reflect the Manchester community and the River Raisin; a design that will appeal to everyone. You can include the wording as part of your design or just submit a design and we will add the wording. The arrangement of the wording can be flexible, but must include: 56th Annual; Manchester; River Raisin; Canoe/Kayak Race; May 15, 2022.

Maybe you can come up with the next classic t-shirt that will be treasured for years! Please share this with your artistic friends. For more information, check out the Manchester River Raisin Canoe Kayak Race Facebook page or email canoe.kayak.race.2022@gmail.com.

For as little as $1 a month, you can keep Manchester-focused news coverage alive.
