    • the Lund Residence - directions to be sent
    Registration is closed

    This evening is for those who want to become trip leaders, have signed-up to lead their first club trip, for those who've lead a few and want a review, and for those old timers who've lead lots of trips and have much trip management wisdom to share.  This event will occur at the Lund's and directions will be forwarded to all registrants.  With a little luck we'll meet around the fire, share a refreshment, and much discussion on how Ceyana supports club tripping and trip leaders, what  the club's expectations are, and what are the responsibilities for our trip leaders.  Do register, so you receive our support materials, and to insure we have refreshment for you!

    • Twin Lakes Group Campsite in Crimson Lake Prov. Park
    • 39
    Register

    This is one of the prettiest lake front group campsites in Alberta!   And close by there is lots of paddling: big & small lakes, rivers and modest whitewater in the area.  Our most popular paddling over the years has been the runs on the North Saskatchewan: the Horburg run with Devils Elbow, the Blue Bridge Run finishing at the Brierlies, the Brierlies and downstream, and runs on the lower Clearwater river.  Besides Twin Lakes, we've paddled both Crimson and Cow Lakes in recent camps.  We are booked in Thursday through Monday morning so that those with time can arrive early, and leave Monday, and enjoy the site longer and leisurely!

    This is a large group site and we will be sharing the site with a mix of Ceyana educational programs, and volunteer run day trips, on lake, easy river and modest whitewater.  Members are welcome to join us for the camp life to just "chill!"

    Like all camping in Alberta... it does cost, and we are just passing on the expected average per unit expense.
    - 4 nites at $165 per unit /tent/rv/etc.
    - 3 nites at $125 per unit
    - 2 nites at $ 85 per unit.

    These are our "Early Bird" fees, "Regular " fees are $20 more for the camp.

    Registration opens February 16, 2025.

    Be sure to register only one person for camping... guests will be charged if you register them... Camp fee is per camp/sleeping unit!  It is best to fill up our tent or RV with family and friends to keep the per head cost down!

    You will be asked to indicate if you are in an Ed program or coming to day trip.  Given we have some one day Ed programs, both are possible!  Day trips will be organized each morning of the camp.

    All camp participants must be a member of the Ceyana Canoe Club, or another Alberta canoe club affiliated with Paddle Alberta!

    Camping is rustic, well water, fire pits, clean toilets, camp kitchen and NO power!

    Contact Mark Lund <lundmer@gmail.com> for any questions about this trip.

    Early Bird Fees must be paid by May 19th, then Regular Fees apply.

    Please review the Course Change, Cancellation & Refund Policy.

    Cancellation or Change deadline for refund is May 19th, 2025.
