Calling All Voyageurs

Math geeking not really your style? Maybe youre a bit more into historical recreations. Heylets not judge. The Lake County Forest Preserve District needs a little help with their Floating Classroom recreation of a 17-passenger canoe.
Stand at the helm of our replica Voyageur canoe while guiding groups across the lake and back in time. Experience first-hand the colorful history of the fur trapper in Lake County, improve your canoeing skills, help others and have fun!

If you want to be a faux Voyageur, the LCFPD will give you an outfit, teach you a little French, help you improve your canoeing skills, and not pay you to paddle around what will inevitably be obnoxious fifth-graders who will make fun of your outfit, beaver pelts, and probably your French. If youre interested, give Julie Buzinski a jingle at 847-968-3482.
