Sunshine makes it better!

June 18, 2019

It has not been the warmest or driest spring that the Highlands has ever had but that doesn’t stop these paddlers. On June 3^rd the temperature was only 5 degrees but we paddled…a little harder maybe just to keep warm.

June 17^th; the sun was shining, the water was calm and clear and we paddled hard ‘cause we can.

The reflection in the water was amazing!

Wayne was our steers-person and Marg was our coach

Life is so good in the Haliburton Highlands….come join us!
