If interested in joining the Russell Outdoors Club please send an e-mail to Eileen.blenkarn@rogers.com by April 21.
Please provide youth name, age and where you live.
Limited space available. If we have more interest than spaces we will prioritize based on criteria such as age, county of residence, etc.
Members will be responsible for bringing a bike and transporting it to and from Larose Forest.
Once a leader has confirmed receipt and that we have enough members to have a club, we will inform you to then register and pay the $110 annual provincial fee if this is your first club for 2025.
We will also be requesting an additional $20 per youth to pay for a portion of the canoe/kayak training and rentals. This fee will be paid to one of the leaders.
