Along the Rock S2E64 - Rock Falls River Chase

Season 2, Episode 64

In this episode of Along the Rock, host Kaitlyn Blum talks with Terry Hicks about the exciting return of the Rock Falls River Chase, a high-speed boat race unique to the area.

Terry shares how he helped revive the event after it disappeared in the early 2000s, what it takes to organize a race with boats reaching up to 90 mph, and why this multi-generational tradition means so much to the community.

From 9-year-old racers to seasoned veterans, and everything from JClass boats to hydroplanes, this episode gives a behind-the-scenes look at one of Rock Falls' most thrilling summer events.

🎧 Tune in now and get ready for the roar of the river!
