Why canoe tripping?
The canoe is a Canadian icon and more than any mode of transportation it captures the imagination as a means of taking us to the most amazing scenic landscapes in our country. The chance for a youth to develop a strong sense of self worth through the successes that present themselves along the journey of a canoe trip are irreplaceable. At every turn there are mini problems to be solved, friends to depend on and stories to be forged. The joy that comes with propelling a boat forward with nothing but human power and proper paddling technique is both invigorating and empowering. What’s more, canoeing is fun and it’s a great form of exercise!
