Spring is Coming! - Canoecopia

Rutabaga Outdoor Programs
With such a big world to explore and experience, what
come to mind when you think of paddling “off to
Great Places”? Maybe a canoe trip down a faraway
river or a sea kayak adventure along a distant coast?
Perhaps paddling closer to home in the Boundary Waters, along the
Mississippi, or among the Apostle Islands? Or maybe it’s in your own
backyard on a local stream with a fishing pole or through a lazy marsh
with binoculars in hand? There is no shortage of Great Places and
that’s what we’re all about here at Rutabaga - helping you discover
your own Great Places.
An important component of exploring Great Places is having the
skills to enjoy the journey. That’s where Rutabaga Outdoor Programs
comes in. We believe the quality of your paddling experience is
enhanced as you build competence and confidence. As you expand
your skill base, you become more self-assured and self-reliant. And
learning can be most effective when you get feedback, direction, and
“Oh, The Places You’ll Go!”
“Congratulations! Today is your day. You’re off to Great Places! You’re off and away!”
- “Oh, the Places you’ll Go!”, Dr. Seuss, 1990
