Approaching The End Of Keeners: By Philippe Laniel

It’s the final week of keeners and it will be sad to leave after so long in this place. Already two weeks have passed and two weekends but it feels like we just got here yesterday. We have had so much fun and funny moments on the river during the 10 days of kayaking with coaches and 4 weekends days. Not only on water but off water, we have had so many fun moments as well like playing mafia or spoons together or simply watching kayaking videos in the thunderdome. One way that I think keeners is different than other camps is the off water experience and fun that we have with so many new friends that we make over three weeks. This third week will bring fun experiences like a new river but in my opinion, doing the same thing again will never get old because we kayak with our friends. Heading into this last week I am reminding myself to take every moment to its fullest and enjoy every moment on water with the great coaches to learn but also with my friends to have fun. As much as it will be sad to leave and go back home to any other river than the Ottawa, it’s exciting to have made so many new friends that I look forward to paddling with in the future outside of keeners.
