Event information

Registrations for this event are closed.

Activity Overview

Now that the sun is setting later, it’s time to dust off the canoes and paddle our way to Pelican Island!

The Cubs will learn the basics of Canoe safety, how to fit a PFD, roles whilst in a Canoe, and get out onto the water.

Calling all parents! We’d love as many helping hands as we can get. You could:

  • Help our Joeys get in and out of the canoes (the trickiest and wobbliest part!)
  • Or, if you’re feeling adventurous, pop on a PFD and jump in a canoe to paddle alongside them
