Canoe workshop and family get together. New to canoeing but want to try? The outfitters will be at Windemere on hand to host a training session so you can literally "get your feet wet" in the safety of the lake. Learn the basics of paddling, steering, navigation, and what to do to handle obstacles.

Also come on down and meet the other families who are there this weekend.
