Canoes are moving front and center when Newbury Kayak & Canoe begins doing business as "White Rose Canoe" - a paddle shop devoted to all things canoe!

To celebrate, Saturday, October 9th will be “Canoe Day at White Rose Canoe”.

There will be demo canoes to paddle, some interesting folks to chat with, opportunities to share stories, ask questions, and maybe a raffle or two.

Located on the banks of the Parker River in Newbury MA, White Rose Canoe aims to be a resource for canoeists throughout New England with a major focus on supporting folks new to the sport and families with kids. The shop will also be stocking boats and gear for hard-core expedition types.

Here’s the schedule:
