The group for micro-serfs who'd rather be paddling!
this site is not active It is really just an archive of trip reports at this point, but it seemed worth resurrecting just for that. You find that lots of things are broken.
This virtual organization existed to serve its members, a group of friends
in the vicinity of Toronto, Ontario, Canada who liked to paddle together.
We didn't have any meetings. We didn't have any rules. We didn't have any
officers or structure. We just liked each other's company and we liked to
paddle canoes.
Feel free to read our trip logs.

Canoe Quotes
"At 1:20 a.m. Sunday, a Niagara Regional policeman had to radio somewhat sheepishly for help -- his cruiser had just been rammed by a canoe.
Constable Edwin Gilmore was checking a noise complaint when he spotted some happy tobogganers swooshing down the hill in a canoe.
He parked his car at the bottom of the hill to find out what was going on. Several minutes later his car was clobbered broadside.
About $50 damage was done to the cruiser and the canoe will never float -- or toboggan -- again.
Police say no charges were laid because they could not find a section of the Highway Traffic Act which covered careless canoeing." — Canadian Press, February 1974 |
