Canoe Day 2026

Healing of The Generations invites you to join us for our 6th year Annual Canoe day!

Our Canoe day is about community connecting and building a positive relationship with those who work within the Justice System. As this event is about connections and building positive relationships with one another, we encourage (but NOT mandatory) each trip/each canoe to have one community member and one justice worker.

This is a free event for ages 8 and up! Canoes, Life Jackets and Lunch will be provided!

There will be 2 different length options: 30 minutes and 3 hours.

Please note: we asked that if you are participating in the 3 Hour canoe trip, you arrive at Kiwanis for 8:30AM SHARP to launch by 9am! 30 minutes (starts at 8:30am as well) trips will run continuously, all day up until 2PM and can be taken more than once.

Please fill out the registration form here: https://form.jotform.com/261594480265261

Closing date for form is August 5th!
