WILD about Sports Workshops

WILD About Sports encourages Canadians to get outside and enjoy Canada’s waterways, coastline and oceans by providing training, resources and opportunities for them to get involved and take action. The program uses watersports and related activities to increase Canadians’ awareness of the environment and wildlife habitat.

The WILD About Sports guide features 20 activities that will build your confidence in using conservation messaging as they work with groups and individuals outdoors and in, on and around the water.
