On a foggy, Thursday morning in early October, ten girls and fourteen boys left tfie school to begin Barton ' s fall canoe trip. Once on the water, the group split into two brigades. The girls, with Mrs. Jazvac and Mr. McCallum, went in one direction while the boys, with Mr. Johnson and Mr. Monteith, went in another. A good canoe trip in one of th e most beautiful parts of the world, Algonquin Park, will leave you with memories which will last a lifetime: two racoons inside your tent; brilliant fall colours reflected in a still lake; the smell of bacon and woodsmoke as you crawl out of your tent on a crisp October morning; nearly losing Mrs. Jazvac in the mud swamp at Vanishing Pond; Debbie Morrison ' s wonderful laugh, funny stories around the campfire under a sky full of stars and Tracey Trout diving into the icy waters to retrieve a paddle blade. Everyone brings back his own special memories from a canoe trip. Come with us on our next voyage and see what we mean!
