Museum of Lennox and Addington: Canoe for Change

May 16, 2023 @ 7:00 pm

Husband-and-wife team Carol Vanden Engel and Glenn Green will join us for Tuesday Night at the Museum in May. Listen to stories of their inspiring journey to paddle across Canada!

Canoe for Change is the story of husband-and-wife team Glenn Green and Carol VandenEngel who together accepted the challenge to paddle across Canada as a retirement gift to themselves. Traversing through oceans, rivers, lakes and creeks, the couple completed a journey across Canada from the Pacific to the Atlantic Ocean. Canoeing and portaging over 8,500 kilometers, they were privileged to see Canada from thousand-year-old water trails and form connections to nature that many have lost.

— Doors will open at 6:30pm with the presentation to start at 7:00pm.
— $3/person
— No pre-registration required

Carol Vanden Engel and Glenn Green have always had a passion for the great outdoors. These passions take them hiking, backcountry camping, snowshoeing, and canoeing. After enjoying fulfilling office careers, now in retirement, they continue to do the things they love: traveling off the beaten path, maintaining a healthy lifestyle, and always looking for the next challenge. Glenn and Carol live together in Kingston, Ontario.
