The Adventure in Understanding Canoe Trip was initiated by Don Watkins of the Rotary Club of Peterborough Kawartha four years ago. Partnering with Camp Kawartha and Curve Lake First Nation, this year’s 6 day trip left on August 27th from Beavermead Park and concluded at Curve Lake First Nation, having traveled 100 km. There they celebrated a successful trip at a feast hosted by Chief Phyllis Williams, and planted a ceremonial Silver Maple tree they had brought with them from Peterborough’s Ecology Park. Diversity, cultural understanding, team building, along with the benefits of being outside is what the adventure was all about.
