As part of the Trout Festival weekend canoe races will take place Saturday afternoon on Ross Lake.  Greg East says you can paddle small or large canoes.  He says starting at 12 o’clock in the Stittco parking lot Rick and Pat Hall will be taking registrations for the canoe event and they will start at 1 with the small canoes on Ross Lake and there’s family events, mixed doubles and singles and anyone who’s down there can have a great time.  He adds the Voyageur canoes will be on the water and you can put between six and ten people in these canoes and its 100 dollars to register a canoe.

Proceeds from the Voyageur Canoe go to the Flin Flon and District Environment Council.  For information you can call Greg at 204-687-0754.
