Each year at our university, one of the student groups on campus, IVCF, hosts a weekend Canoe Camp at a nearby lake in our beautiful Qu’Appelle River Valley.

I just returned from a lovely weekend there again.  We had a bit more rain this year, but we still had many opportunities for outdoor activities before and after the rains.

On a previous outing with many of the same volunteers, I shot a lot of photos.  In my online photo album, I give many details of the different activities throughout the weekend. 

Archery is just one of many activities available
