January 1, 2009 - A dozen members of the Raw Strength & Courage Kayakers club conducted the 33rd Annual New Year's Day Paddle on the Huron River.

Full coverage of the event can be found here: New Year's Day Paddle.

River levels remain high following an after-Christmas warming period, providing both challenging and enjoyable conditions between Zeeb Road and the Delhi Metropark.

Note: kayakers and canoeists should be well-dressed for the elements one encounters when embarking on a winter paddle. Dry suits, dry tops, non-cotton insulating layers, and spare clothing are only a FEW of the must-have items for kayaking the Huron River in winter conditions.
