On May 18th, 2025 (rain or shine!), participants will kayak, canoe or paddle board down the Grand River, finishing at Waterloo Regional Health Network's Chicopee Campus. Bring your own craft (kayak, canoe, SUP board, bottle raft), don't forget a paddle! 

Teams can choose either the 46km eight-hour journey or a leisurely four-hour afternoon paddle—all to raise money for Grand River Hospital in support of our vision of a world class health system! View the routes and starting points.

Teams can choose which of the hospital's Areas of Care they would like to fundraise for: Cancer Care, Continuum of Care, Emergency Care, WRHN Kids, Kidney Care, Learning + Innovation, Mental Health or Patient Experience.
