Trailhead and The Paddle Shack

sorry to see you go :)

'Everything has its time' says the young adventurer who works at The Paddle Shack, Trailhead, Ottawa.

But I bought my first pair of boat straps there...

and my first NorthFace jacket

rented my first kayak at the Paddle Shack

I will miss seeing this building as I pass...

always busy adventurers, planning their trips, picking up gear, all that good ol outdoor stuff we love to do!

But, they aren't going far

...I won't be able to walk there anymore, but they will be located across from CarlingWood Shopping Centre, where the Harvey's is...mmmmm :)

I said good-bye to the girl working the cash. We chatted and she came outside with me and told me a little about the building itself, how the builders etched their signatures on the beams.

Will miss you Trailhead, House of Wood :)

The guy in rentals mentioned that they were going to bring the wood style in the design of the new build, the new location. I look forward to seeing it.

I bet they won't be throwing out these beams !!! I will look for them at the new site!
Here is their info:

Looks like they are hiring as well... :)
