The Inaugural Iola Elks Hillbilly Raft Race drew only two competitors Saturday afternoon, but that did little to douse the fun for participants and spectators alike. At left, Paul Thibodeau, foreground, and Nick Anderson complete their 200-yard trek from the shore to a buoy and back in their two-man vessel. At right, Jerry Mirante receives a helpful push by Gary Kimball of the Iola Fire Department, who was on hand to ensure none of the participants fell in the drink. Photo by Richard Luken.
