DEFINITIONS

High Impact Canoe: any solo or tandem canoe made of aluminum or plastic, including Royalex, Discovery, T-Formex, etc. Any dimension allowed, but it can't be a roof rack queen! No fiberglass, no kevlar, no carbon fiber, none of that frilly stuff! Only boats that laugh at rocks. You would never put a cover on these.

Standard Canoe: any solo or tandem canoe with a maximum length of 18’6” and a 4” waterline width of at least 15% of the length. Minimum bow and stern height 16.5”. Competition Cruisers (4x32 specs) may enter this class. Any material allowed.

Pro Boat: a tandem marathon racing canoe with a maximum length of 18’6” and a minimum 27” width at the 3” waterline, AKA 3x27. If you have to ask, you don't have one of these.

Marathon C1: a solo marathon racing canoe with a maximum length of 18’6”, and a minimum width of 14 3/8% at the 4” waterline. You know it if you have it.

Plastic Kayak: any single kayak, sit-on-top, or surf ski made of rotomolded plastic. No restriction on dimensions, but it has to be plastic. No funny composite blend stuff. Plastic like Granny would recognize. Ex.: Epic V7, Prijon Barracuda, Ocean Kayak Sprinter, etc.

Sea Kayak: any single kayak, sit-on-top or surf ski with a maximum overall length of 18' and a 4'' waterline width of at least 8.5% of length. Any material allowed.

Scout Relay Option

The Scout Relay will use the 12 Mile Challenge course but be broken up into three legs. Two Scouts will paddle the first leg, from the start, downstream around buoy 1, then back upstream to buoy 2. Just a few feet below buoy 2 there is a sand/gravel shallow area where the first exchange will be made and the second two Scouts will take over. This area is accessible via the asphalt path running from the boat ramp along the river behind the Dearbought subdivision.

The second two Scouts will paddle around buoy 2, then follow the river downstream to the very northern edge of Pinecliff Park. Just below the Rt 144 bridge (blue painted steel) stay river left to enter into a shallow gut, then portage to the asphalt path running between the river and the park. Continue to portage (carts OK) to the ramp, where the third pair of Scouts will take over. The ramp is the second exchange point.

The third pair of Scouts will paddle downstream to buoy 3, then back upstream to the finish line at the Pinecliff Park ramp.

Each team will consist of 6 Scouts and 1 high impact canoe (see definitions). Troops may enter as many teams as desired. When registering, just enter the team name and the email of the Scout Leader making the registration. In a follow up email, we will gather the names and shirt sizes of your Scouts.

The winning team will receive a trophy cup to take back to the Troop, and all finishers will receive a custom uniform patch.

Little D on the Monocacy Rules

Race postponement policy: if the race must be postponed per Rule 8, we will still have the BBQ. Anyone who is unable to attend on the postponed date can contact the race organizer to have their registration transferred to next year.

Registration Procedures

As part of our 2021 COVID plan, we moved to a drive-thru registration model. Our registration volunteers liked it so much, they are asking if we can keep it that way. Since one of the registration volunteers is She Who Must Be Obeyed, we will be keeping the drive thru model. Not only is it a safer model from a COVID perspective, it also allows a much more orderly registration process, reducing errors and registration time. And, for those of you who aren't sure which class your boat fits into, we can immediately see your boat on your vehicle and make that determination.

We respectfully ask you to drive to the registration tent and register from inside your vehicle instead of walking up. Please see the map below.

USGS River Gauge and How to Read the River

For current Monocacy River water conditions at Monocacy Blvd in Frederick, MD please click link: https://waterdata.usgs.gov/monitoring-location/01642190/#parameterCode=00065&period=P7D

Three feet to five feet is an excellent race level. Below two feet rocks emerge and can pose a hazard to less durable boats and fixed rudders. The race will not run at levels above 5 feet on the Monocacy Blvd gauge.

2.5 feet is the minimum recommended level for fixed rudders, skegs, or fins. Kick up rudders and skegs are manageable at lower levels. It would not be a bad idea to bring a spare if you have any concerns at all about hitting rocks.

The ability to "read the river" is a very helpful skill for the most efficient and cleanest run in moving water. Here is a video on how to read the river: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R2xXz3ZKrMY

Please be advised the race will run rain or shine. Only a level above 5 feet or lightning will cause a delay or cancellation. Please see the race rules for more information.

Little D on the Monocacy Facebook page

On May 2, 2014, doctor’s informed us our ray of sunshine, Little D, only had 6 months to 3 years left to shine. Infantile metachromatic leukodystrophy (MLD) would slowly dull the brightness of our light through a rapid and progressive timeline.

Within as little as 3 months, Little D lost the mobility of his limbs and speech. Eyesight and hearing loss slowly followed. The sadness that little d would be deprived of life’s many sweet offerings was heartrending.

To ensure he knew the peaceful surrender of welcoming a new day, the quiet sounds and sight of rainfall and the vast excitement of Disney the family complied a bucket list. Compiling a bucket list for a two year old quickly dissipated the dense haze of denial one blindly stumbles through when faced with such unbearable grief. It awakens the heart and mind to absorb the preciousness of each moment… each day.

Over the next four years, Little D's Bucket List generated a myriad of beautiful memories from throwing glitter in the air to dancing the night away at prom as his big sister's date. Each item was gifted from well wishers in our community in the most profound of ways.

One such preflight adventure, which will continue long after he gained his wings, was Little D on the Monocacy.

Competitive paddler and family friend Steve Corbett added to the bucket list in a big way, gifting Little D, family, and the paddling community the first ever kayak, canoe and SUP race on the historic and scenic Monocacy River in Frederick, MD. Since 2014, Little D, family and compassionate paddlers have gathered from all over the East coast to join in celebration. We are forever indebted to their kindness for giving us reason to smile and cheer in the midst of such tragedy. What a gift, and one we will surely never be able to repay.

On December 29, 2018, the sweetest of smiles, the strongest of wills, and the kindest of souls joined the angels in the loving arms of family. Little D on the Monocacy is surrounding the Sullivans with prayers for peace and humble promise to keep D’s legacy thriving. His gentle and giving spirit is carried on in the hearts of the many lives he touched, most especially the beautiful race community brought together by our little mascot. We love you always, Little D.
