Second Annual Havre de Grace Triathlon.
This is a sprint distance triathlon in a beautiful, waterfront setting on the shores of the Chesapeake Bay in downtown Havre de Grace. The triathlon is a non-profit event with 100% of the proceeds benefitting the Havre de Grace Maritime Museum and the Upper Chesapeake Health Foundation Oncology Services Support Program which offers many services and exercise support programs for free to all of its oncology patients. Councilwoman Brenda Guldenzoph was the pivotal momentun who brought triathlon to Havre de Grace. Sadly, Brenda succumbed to cancer two and one-half months after last year's race. This year's race is dedicated in her memory and in honor of her legacy.
