The WSC has come a long way since its first gathering in founder, George Luste’s living room in 1986.
On February 24-25, 2017, the 32nd Annual Canoeing and Wilderness Symposium will be held at Monarch Park Collegiate Auditorium.
A gathering created for like-minded outdoors enthusiasts to share their admiration of our beloved northern Canadian habitat, all while highlighting the increasing pressure it faces in our modern world.
