RiverFest Endurance Swim and Relay

August 2o, 2010

This is the opening event of RiverFest 2010, Portland’s celebration of the Willamette River. This event started because of a conversation about how the river has directly affected people’s lives. I was told that as a young man courting my grandmother, my Grandfather Ken McLarty, swam this distance down the river from his home in West Linn to her home on SE Morrison and 12^th Street. just to see her.
