Celebrate National Canoe Day!
19 Jun
We’ve always liked those Canadians. In 2007, more than 1 million of our neighbors to the north voted the canoe one of the Seven Wonders of Canada. To celebrate, the Canadian Canoe Museum in Petersborough, Ontario established National Canoe Day. Now, June 26 is reserved for the annual appreciation of the age-old watercraft.
This year, the Canadian Canoe Museum is celebrating the 5th Anniversary of National Canoe Day a few days early, on Saturday, June 23 by gathering people (and their canoes) in Millennium Park in Petersborough, Ontario. But you don’t have to be in Canada, or Canadian, to celebrate. The Museum is inviting all canoeing enthusiasts–including “canewbies”–to participate or register their own events online.
