   The History of Canoe Trails

       It is believed that Canoe Trails began in 
  1947, under the direction of Dr. Everett 
  Partridge who began taking his Boy Scouts on 
     Canadian canoe trips. In 1965, Mr. George S. 
     Wildman began the Co-Ed Canoe Trails program to 
     enable girls to have the opportunity to have 
     this same enjoyment. Today, both the Boys and 
     the Co-Ed programs run simultaneously.

    The home base for the programs is in Beaver, 
     Pennsylvania with a present Canadian base
in Kipawa, Quebec, Canada.

    What a great time we all had up in Canada! If you did not go, you missed
    the adventure of a lifetime! 

    Now that our voyage is complete for 2010, it is time to clean up the
    gear and fix anything that was damaged over the course of two trips.
    With this in mind, we will be having a work day Thursday, August 19th from
    7-9PM for all those who went on the second trip (Group B). Then on Saturday
    August 21st from 8-4PM, there will be a work day for all Canoe Trails 
    members. If there are any questions, please post them on the forum.
