On Saturday, July 30, 2017, the Island Falls Lakes Association (IFLA) sponsored their 13th annual Around-the-Pond Canoe/Kayak Races at Birch Point Lodge and Campgrounds on Pleasant Lake in Island Falls.
Each year the paddlers raise money for the Southern Aroostook Community High School’s Dollars for Scholars program. The IFLA awards $500 in scholarships each year.
The IFLA would like to thank all of the paddlers who came out on that beautiful morning as well as its members who donated their time for the event.
Members would also like to thank Elaine Small and her Dollars for Scholars volunteers for providing grilled hotdogs and treats for all the paddlers and workers.
