We strongly recommend that you read the strategy before you come out for your first canoe trip so you won&#8217;t run into any surprises at the shed. Changes include:<br \/>\n1. Trip Pre-registration<br \/>\n2. Preparing trip fees ahead of time<br \/>\n3. Vaccination requirements -Must be fully vaccinated!<br \/>\n4. After trip routine<\/p>\n<p>Trips will be cancelled if enough people don&#8217;t sign up by the night before the scheduled trip.
