For those paddlers in the Victoria/lower Vancouver Island area (or those who would like to be) the first annual Kayak For a Cure "Victoria" takes place on August 10th of this year. Kayak For a Cure Victoria is a fundraiser for the Canadian Cancer Society where paddlers sign up to paddle and help raise donations for research into cures and treatments for cancer. 100% of the money's donated will go to the Canadian Cancer Society. Kayak For a Cure Victoria is looking for paddlers to sign up and join us .The paddle starts at Verdier Park in Brentwood Bay (next to the Brentwood Bay ferry terminal) and continues on down Saanich Inlet to the Goldstream Boathouse area and back, approx. 14 mile round trip. There will be rest stops and a lunch break along the way. At the end of the paddle we'll hold a BBQ in the park for all the participants and volunteers. For more information on Kayak For a Cure and a link to the Canadian Cancer Society sign up/donation page please go to http://kayakforacure.blogspot.com/ or contact myself via e-mail. Thank you for taking the time to read this and I hope to see some of you out there :-) Don Lowther Victoria BC *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
