Posted on January 14, 2012
During the last week of August 2012, The Okanagan Brigade Society will be hosting a Voyagers Brigade with guest from across Canada, the United States, and possibly other nations. We are expecting as many as 20 Voyager canoes with up to 200 paddlers participating. We will be celebrating the history of the Okanagan and the First Nations people, the days of the Fur Brigade Trail, the early ranching days in the North Okanagan and todays Winery trail extending the length of the Okanagan Valley. We will paddle Wood Lake, Kalmalka Lake ,Okanagan Lake and Skaha Lake. We will be visiting the communities of Vernon , Fintry , O.K. Center, Kelowna, Westbank, Peachland, Summerland, Naramata, Penticton Keledon and Okanagan Falls. We will be camping at various locations on the lake. Each evening we hope to give people a choice of three different wineries to visit. If you need more please contact Gordon Kelly 250-979-2820

canews request
Posted on January 05, 2012
Hello RCABCer's! I hope you have all had a lovely holiday season. It's that time again when I ask for submissions for the next edition of the CANEWS! As I am currently on a "working holiday" in New Zealand, canoe guiding on the Whanganui River, I thought it would be great to run some stories about other international (or Canadian) canoeing adventures that our members have experienced. Any stories along those lines, as well as anything else interesting happening around the BC canoe world, would be much appreciated. Please send the submissions to me via email at alanna.m.ray@gmail.com by JANUARY 20TH 2012. Thanks! Alanna Ray RCABC Newsletter Editor
