About Us

 

VKH Canoeists is a loose association of people who enjoy canoeing. Most enjoy wilderness vacations too.

Most of us are from Ontario but a few people from other provinces participate too. Occupations of those who've been involved over the past year include: teachers, Hydro workers, office workers, professional athletes, social workers, nurses, communication specialists, economists, accountants, journalists, artists and photographers as well as students.

What other activity is as likely to bring such a diverse group of people together? That's one of the attractions of VKH canoeists.

By browsing our trip photos you can see what we look like. You'll notice ages range from school-age to retired folks.

The de facto secretary of this eclectic group is Robert Irwin, a magazine editor and former YMCA camp hike and trip director.

You can contact him at: rirwin@canadianrecretion.ca or by calling 613-678-2232.

"We are shaped and fashioned by what we love"

So what if you can't paddle straight. No one will ever guess when you wear the coolest t-shirt on the planet!

After getting ideas from paddlers across Canada, we commissioned widely published illustrator Bill Suddick, to design the ultimate canoeing t-shirt. Bill's original artwork appears in two different colour versions. Specify red or green when ordering.
