Well folks, we had a great day on the water Saturday!! The sun was out, it was nice to see everyone out. A BIG thanks to all of our door prize sponsors. We were proud to be able to donate over 1000$ to The Peace River SPCA, as they need a new roof…

Nice to see some new faces from out of town and we hope to see you all there next year!!

Site C construction has really been messing with the water levels. They chopped the flow way back to do some work mid August, both my boys work at the Shaftesbury ferry and say they were constantly adjusting the ramps due to the fluctuations all month. We did the Paddle the Peace event last weekend and the level was up considerably from a few weeks ago, at least 2 feet higher compared to last year's event.

It was nice to help out the SPCA this year especially, as they're looking to replace a roof.
