River Spirit Canoe Club

River Spirit Canoe Club The River Spirit Canoe Club is a family based indigenous team promoting a healthy lifestyle. We are always open to new participants.

Founded in Skwah (Pil'alt) of the Sto:lo territory, the River Spirit Canoe Club is located at the Chilliwack Landing. We travel each weekend during the spring and summer to a different reserve that hosts a canoe race. As east as Seabird Island, to as west as Victoria & Neah Bay, and as south as Seattle, we fundraise all year round to travel to these locations. From young to old, all are welcome to

come and try paddling whether it's your first time ever, or first time coming back. Come join us for some fun on the water. We work with the local Chilliwack School District to take the students out on the canoe every year. Preschool age and Elementary age children have been a part of this even in the past, but we would be open to middle school and high school students as well.

Here's a throw back. Who remembers Suzanne Rose? These photos are from 1982 at Cultus Lake water festival. The second picture is of late Dean Williams and late Reno James (Williams) who are also sitting bow & second seat on the canoe.

🛶Results for the David Williams Memorial Marathon 2024❤️

Thank you to all the participants! Thank you all the supporters that wake up to cheer on our paddlers! What an amazing turn out! 39 participants! Here's a list of times, as well as the shirts for the participants, some with the David Williams Marathon with the logo, some with one of his sayings on the back! We hope you wear them with pride, David believed that wearing red showed your confidence.
Also sorry for the delay! We had technical difficulties, thankfully we wrote down times as well. Got it all sorted. Sadly there are a few blanks spots, we wrote down times but missed the names due to clusters of canoes crossing the line at once and people coming to ask us questions! Lol We will need to put a "timing in progress, do not disturb!" sign up.

***Next year we will work on doing registration for this Marathon, so that we can be more prepared with sizes, as well as extras.
