Canoecopia 2014

Although it isn't a Canadian event, we can't pass up the opportunity to talk about Canoecopia. With only two months to go until the big show, if you plan to go, now is the time to start planning your trip to Madison, Wisconsin.

Canoecopia was created by Rutabaga Paddlesports and is the world's largest Canoe, Kayak, SUP and outdoor expo. It has nearly 50 guest speakers (Including Canada's own Kevin Callan and Preston Ciere) including pool presentations, seminars, clinics and numerous booths with vendors with all the latest gear and latest models of Canoes, Kayaks and SUPs.
