The National Canoe Day celebration at Samuel de Champlain Provincial Park this past weekend was a hit. We arrived in style by voyageur canoe, had music all day by Fresh Water Trade, had cedar strip and birch bark canoe builders on hand, canoe racers, paddle making, paddle painting, me as MC and a bunch of enthusiastic paddlers who gathered on this historic waterway for a great event.. I camped out at the park for three days (I love Samuel de Champlain campground) and spent some time with some great people.
