Canoe Camping and Outdoor Yoga, Frontenac Park 22-24 Aug 2008
We are calling for canoeists to join us for another yoga trip with late-summer breeze and sunshine filtered through the leaves. Yoga in the outdoors for YCCC (YM/WCA Canoe Camping Club, www.yccc.ca) has been an annual event since 2001. Just imagine the gentle guidance of a soothing voice easing you into a healing pose as loon calls echo on the lake.
Rest and recreation are the aims. Experience in yoga is not necessary. An experienced yoga instructor will lead the practices. A short easy paddle gets you to the picturesque campsites, where we will stay from Friday evening to Sunday afternoon. There will be no portage. Two rocky beaches are by the campsites. Hiking trails connect the campsitesto the rest of the park interior. Yoga, swimming, hiking, trail running, or just relaxing with a good book are on the agenda. Come to rejuvenate and enjoy healthy, tasty, gourmet meals and good-company. Fasting option is also available.
Sound good? Then join us for yoga/canoe/camping weekend in Frontenac Park August 22-24, 2008 (leaving Ottawa Friday afternoon) Frontenac Provincial Park is North of Kingston, Ontario. Deposit of $15 will reserve a spot for you on this popular trip for about 10 participants. Reply by e-mail Cedric or give me a ring at 613-761-1020. The planning meeting will be on Tuesdays August 19. <http://www.yccc.ca/node/7810>
