A new home for the Canoe and Kayak Club is now up and running near the Claybanks Marina thanks to a partnership between the Recreation Department and the City of Dryden.
Programmer Shannon Brennan says the facility offers canoe, kayak and boat rentals as well as snacks.
He notes they soon hope to sell minnows.
Meantime, Dryden and Vermilion Bay hope to offer a new service by the end of Summer to boost recreation opportunities in the Region.
Residents will be able to take a canoe or kayak and paddle a route linking the two communities.
Once they arrive at their destination, they will be able to leave the boat, without the worry of hauling it back.
Brennan notes they are currently offering lessons, a guided trip and a whitewater program.
