The build is done, and what an amazing journey it was! Over the course of several days, our students worked together to construct a full-size canoe as part of a partnership with the Catholic Schools Center of Excellence and Urban Wilderness.
Beyond learning how to measure, saw, steam-bend, and lash materials, our students experienced the power of collaboration, focus, and follow-through. The completed canoe now stands as a symbol of what they can accomplish when they bring curiosity, creativity, and teamwork to the table. We’re so proud of their efforts, and grateful to our staff, volunteers, and partners who made it possible!
And it even FLOATS!
