About Pisiquid Canoe Club
Pisiquid was founded in 1975 by Fred and Karen Lynch and ever since it has provided summer fun to the youth of Windsor and West Hants. More recently, and with the redevelopment of the clubhouse in 2016/17, Pisiquid now offers year-round training in addition to summer camps. There is something for everyone at Pisiquid - see you on the water!
