  We have a special presentation on this year's Gulf Islands Brigade since so many club members were able to participate.

  In July the brigade paddled from Nanaimo to Victoria over 7 days carrying all our food and camping gear, staying on various Gulf Islands or locations on Vancouver Island. Curious about brigades in general or what it's like to paddle a voyageur canoe? Come out to chat with this year's particpants or maybe even some veteran brigade paddlers.

  
  

  Items to bring, if you are able:

  • Potluck dessert to share.

They will automatically re-order themselves according to their original file number.
