Canoecopia is less than 2 months away! This annual event is held at the Alliant Energy Center in Madison Wisconsin March 7-9, and bills itself as “the world’s largest paddle sports exhibition.”

This year the Charles L. Sommers Alumni Association has committed to staffing the Northern Tier midway booth for the duration of the program. Volunteers are needed for Friday afternoon and evening, Saturday and Sunday.

This is a great opportunity to hear national quality speakers on a host of topics including great trips, gear and techniques, while meeting up with fellow alumni and friends. We’ll have displays and information for potential future participants, and will provide you with talking points for Scout leaders and youth.

Ready to volunteer? Register here for a 2-hour time block to help out. Use the booth as your own headquarters for the event. (Note, volunteers are responsible for their own event admission and parking.)
