Community Connections
Community Connections
The symposium is designed to connect paddlers to communities. Look forward to social paddles, group meals, and local partnerships. Our base is the small village of Cornucopia but our venue is the entire Apostle Islands area!
Paying It Forward
Attendees help us directly give back to the community; from youth leadership mentoring, helping people access the outdoors, and raising funds to help local environmental causes.

During 2023 our participants raised $1500 for the Friends of the Apostle Islands. For 2024 our donation partner is Mt Ashwabay Outdoor Education Foundation.
