Ready Ready For A Cure
The Ready! Ready! For A Cure project, which took place in 2002, was undertaken by a team of
amazing people.
The group challenged themselves with the demanding task of organizing all aspects of the journey, and then paddling a 40-foot
dragon boat along the entire 202 km length of the Rideau Canal waterways.
The journey was completed in support of breast cancer research.
