Event Description
|
We will paddle Petrolia's Bear Creek. While this section of creek is small, it is not uncommon to see wildlife such as Beavers, Owls, Grey Heron, and Deer. Some new and old equipment from Petrolia's oil industry can also be seen from the Creek. Afterwards we will head to a local restaurant for a snack and some refreshments.
