Paddlers Reach Rainy River District

A group of paddlers are making their way through the Rainy River district.

Paddle Across Canada is raising money for three charities that promote outdoor education.

Team member Peter Vooys says outdoor education helps connect children back with nature.

The group started its travels in May leaving Rocky Mountain House and will end their journey in Lachine, Quebec in September.

They arrived in Fort Frances Friday.
