Cheque, cash, and e-transfer payments are available at Membership meeting. 

Volunteer Trip Towers AND Trip Leaders Required~ Please consider helping!

Anne would like members to bring their calendars so they can sign up to tow and/or lead canoe trips.
Once dates and trips are confirmed, the trip schedule will be sent out to members via blog post. You will have ample time to review dates, decide when you can volunteer, OR see Anne at membership meeting. 

**Our club cannot be successful if we do not have volunteers and continue to rely on the same few people to do many tasks. **
