Canoe Races on Penelakut July 29th and 30th
Thursday, July 27, 2017 at 6:55AM Youth, men and women's events both days.
Thetis Islanders welcome. 10:00 Saturday till 3:00 Sunday
The event is on the spit on the east side of Penelakut, it is just of 2km across the island from the ferry so it is a good 1/2 hour walk some of it up hill. The school bus and other rides will be available to transport from the ferry to the spit.
Better to not drive over as you will have to back on the ferry if you leave from Thetis.
You are welcome to canoe, kayak or boat over to the spit, avoid the race course :) unless you are planning on competing.
Canoe crews will be coming from Cowichan, Snuneymuxw, Chemainus, Saanich and more.
Booths will be set up on the spit to sell food (hamburgers, indian taco's more) and crafts, bring water and other personal items that you may need.
Donations gratefully accepted to offset cost of holding this event.
