    • Bow Waters Club House

    Our lifelong member and very well-seasoned member Mike Kelly will present on his times in the canoe club and regale, awe and inspire us with his amazing photography. He is moving away after so we will need to make this a big "SEE YOU LATER, FAREWELL FOR NOW". If we have time - we can swap stories about Mike!

    Club members and the Public are welcome to attend. Doors open at 6:30pm.

    Bring your curiosity and questions!  See you there!

Our paddling trips are classified into Novice, Intermediate and Advanced levels. Please ensure you have the skills to paddle the trips you are signing up for. Unsure? No problem, talk to the coordinator to get some additional insights. 

A reminder that our trips are not guided. The coordinator is only responsible for the organization of the trip. We are common adventurers and as such are responsible for our selves and our own safety.
