The cancellation is due to the current Riverfront construction along the St. Mary&#8217;s River.<br \/>\n&#8220;Due to Riverfront construction restrictions, we have elected to postpone the Raft Race this year,&#8221; explained Jack Hammer, Executive Director of the Three Rivers Festival. &#8220;The Riverfront improvements, once complete, will create a more engaging event for both spectators and participants. Although we would love to see this staple event as a part of the 50th Three Rivers Festival, we are even more excited about how the event will grow with the completion of the Riverfront development.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>About Three Rivers Festival<\/strong><br \/>\nThree Rivers Festival, established in 1969, is a not-for-profit organization, funded entirely by souvenir sales, event participation fees, refreshment &#038; entertainment tickets, and the generous support and sponsorship of area businesses.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h3>Related Images:<\/h3><div class=\"ngg-related-gallery\">\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/gallery\/blog-headers\/2009_02_12_header.jpg\"\n\t\t\ttitle=\"The St. Mary&#039;s River and Headwaters Park during February flooding.
