Moosefest, an annual whitewater kayaking event on the Moose River, will take place Friday through Sunday, October 18 to 20th. The weekend’s events will kick-off on Friday night with a film fest at the Strand Theatre from 8 to 10 p.m. featuring a number of whitewater-themed short films.
Dave Gardner of Mountainman Outdoor Supply Company in Old Forge, organizer of the film fest, said his motive is to get people excited for paddling on Saturday and Sunday.
