The weather is good, with light winds tomorrow.   The water is cold enough to make "Cold Shock" a risk, so I'd asking anyone joining me to be wearing either a wetsuit or a drysuit.

(If you're unfamiliar with "cold shock" see this article:  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cold_shock_response )

We will launch at 9:00 from the boat ramp at Sarnia Bay Marina.   (Don't park in the lot reserved for cars with trailers;  use the "car only" lot just to the west in front of the building.

From there, we will paddle up towards Bridgeview Marina and explore the back channels in there.   If the group is feeling capable and ambitious, we may paddle up to the Bluewater Bridge instead.  Targeting to be approximately 2 hrs on the water. 



Within 24 hours of the event, conduct a self-assesment using the Ontario online tool found here:

If that tool recommends you be tested, please do not attend the event.
