    Here’s an event that may be of interest and that some paddlers may want to support:

    From the website:

    Around ten years ago my father died from Parkinson’s. That same year, my younger brother Blair was diagnosed with Parkinson’s at age 44. Blair continues his life with the illness, showing grace, insight, and humour. His blog of this life journey entitled, Sometimes You’re the Dog, Sometimes You’re the Fire Hydrant: Life in Parkinson’s Wake, can be found at:http://lifeinparkinsonswake.blogspot.ca. The blog is actually quite humourous, in a twisted, Rasmussen kind of way.

    To raise money for Parkinson’s research, we will kayak 700km over five weeks from Port Hardy on Vancouver Island to Ketchikan, Alaska. Leaving on June 7th, our route will follow the BC coast and Inside Passage.
