Rowers power their way down the Androscoggin River during Tuesday's "shake down" row after taking off from the dock at Simard Payne Memorial Park in Lewiston. A "Touch A Boat" event will kick off Riverfest on Friday night from 3-6 p.m. with a chance to win a kayak in a raffle. Spectators can watch Saturday's races from 9-11:15 a.m. with the best viewing platform being the John Jenkins Memorial Walking Bridge spanning the Androscoggin River between Lewiston and Auburn.
