The wacky canoe races are a highlight of a week on Squam Lake.
First, up and back.
While the "lake sharks" throw buckets of water on the canoeists.
Then, up regularly then paddle back with arms only.
Change places when the whistle blows. Jump out on the whistle and get back in.
Up regularly then "gunwaling" back -- one of the team bounces up and down on the rear seat of deck while the other paddles with arms only.
Finally, both out of the canoe, swamp the canoe, then paddle it home. Blue ribbons for everyone, because participating is being a winner.

What great fun for everyone both watching and in a canoe. Must have been lots of laughter.
