Thanks Mike!

And to all of you
 who attended last month's slide show

Mike's show

- over 65 keen listeners!

We think Richard Hoar says it all for us,


"A great talk held at Ocean River about paddling from Quatsino Sound to Port Renfrew over two trips. Some great discussion and tales. Thanks to Ocean River Sports for hosting such a great talk - I'll be back!"

We look forward to seeing Richard, and all of you, again this month at Quinton's presentation.

Hey All,
Like most of you, I don't like the cold and wet, but heck, I grew up here, so it is all part of being an Islander. You may not belive our ads when we say, "there is no such thing as bad weather" however, the cold weather is easier to bare if you have the right clothing.  We're working hard to have good stuff for you, so come to us if you want the great gear.
 
Spring is just around the corner and our spring and summer goods are just starting to come in. Visit us and check out the new stuff as it arrives.
This month, don't miss our Spring Cleaning Sale starting Feb 7th through to Feb 17th.

Looking forward to seeing you,  
Brian
