  • Canoe Museum Overnights:  In this unique indoor camping experience, students participate in an educational evening program, campfire-style story and song time and then are allowed to slip into a Voyageur encampment, a trapper’s shack or a Wigwam for an evenings rest! This is such a rare opportunity to spend the night in the Canoe Museum and is really something to write home about! This is a great opportunity for Guiding and Scouting Leaders to meet their badge requirements. This program also makes for an awesome Birthday Party!
