Waterways to Wellness 🛶

Our inaugural wellness paddling event this afternoon went well. Miigwetch to Maddy and Emily for leading our trip with care as we paddled together and enjoyed the great company, beautiful fall colours and moody clouds. ☁️🍂

Keep an eye out for our spring community wellness events!

Miigwetch to the wonderful the trent aesthetic for capturing our paddle! 🫶🏼
