Paddle for MS 2011

2010’s inaugural Paddle for MS was a big success on many levels so we decided to make it an annual event.  In one unforgettable day, we paddled65km in 14 hours while raising over $7000 for MS research.  Click here for the full story.  In 2011 we’re making the event bigger and better.

This summer cross Lake Ontario with us!

Be a part of something truly incredible this summer and help Surf Ontario raise funds for the MS Society of Canada.  Our goal this year is to get more people and businesses involved by a creating number of paddling distances.  Choose your distance: 5 km, 10 km, 30km or the entire 65km distance from Hamilton to Toronto!

Individuals

- We are looking for individuals to join and bring a friend or two or more!

- We also need volunteers to help with logistics and cheer on everyone at the finish line at Ashbridge’s Bay.

Businesses

- Pick a distance and SUP as a company team.

- We are looking for corporate sponsors to get involved with any level of commitment, large or small.  Last year’s paddle got coverage on CBC TV and Global TV. (please see our media page)

This Year’s Date

We will have a four day holding period for ideal wind conditions:  Friday August 5th, to Monday August 8th.  We will decide the night before if the forecast shows favourable conditions for the paddle.
