Gulf Island Brigade 2025

For your information,  dates for the Brigade are July 26th - August 1st , 2025.

Planning is currently underway for this trip. We will be paddling and camping on various Gulf Islands off the coast of Vancouver Island.  

For non-club members the cost will be $2400 per canoe with a maximum crew of 6 people including the captain. A non-refundable deposit of $200 per canoe is required. When registering a canoe, only the captain needs to register. The remaining 5 crew members will automatically have space reserved for them. Details on how to sign up the crew will be given to the captain.

VCKC members will  sign up individually and be assigned to VCKC canoes at a later date. 

Solo paddlers will be given the opportunity to sign up on a list that will be made available to captains looking for crew members.

Registration will open March 1st, 2025. More brigade details will be available then. No advance registration will be happening.
