Evening Presentations. After a great day on the water, and dinner by the one and only Bitters & Bones, our 'Evening Presentations' program is great way to continue learning, in a laid back and relaxed environment (often...with a beverage in hand!) One of the great things is, participant feedback leads to new presentations each year. Like Coach Andrew Jillings of leading 'Boat Packing for Overnight Trips.' Our longest standing presenter is DCATC Celeste Gabai and 'Wellness for Paddlers.' She celebrated 6 years in 2026 and she always gets a great crowd. Thank you to all of amazing presenters. What presentations do you want to see added for 2027?

'Tour Monday' has been a part of the since it's inception. The goal is to give those who attended the 2 days of on water training, a way to get out and put their new skills to use. Often called, 'learning on the move,' it's a tour that allows Coaches to put some finishing touches on the work our students put in. This year, the Canoe and Pack Canoe tracks took on the 'Stoney Creek Ponds to the Crusher on the Raquette River.' This was an 11 mile paddle and took the group about 3:15 hours to complete. Thank you to St. Regis Canoe Outfitters and Adirondack Lakes and Trails Outfitters for supporting the Symposium, by setting our shuttle for this one-way Tour. Thanks to 6 year Coach (and our Friend) John Ozard for the GPS images.

EIGHT DAYS to Go! We ar eso excited to welcome you all to the 2026 and join you on the water. As we wrap up our Sponsor call outs, we turn to our Presenting Sponsor... In 2018 the idea for the event was conjured up over some cocktails (of course) and the Team from NRS hit the ground running to start the planning. Flowing in their founder, Bill Parks, footsteps... this event builds community. Which so aigns with the goals of the Northern Forest Canoe Trail NRS will again have their dry suit loaner program. And new for 2026, 'PFD FIT Check.' For free, try on the latest technology in PFD design and see if YOU... have the best fitting PFD. We look forward to seeing you all in Saranac Lake!
