Paint a Paddle Silent Auction

We are excited to announce the Paint a Paddle Silent Auction. Several artists have contributed their talents by painting decorative canoe paddles in support of FOKP, which will be auctioned off from Sept 15 - Oct 14. Below you can find this year's Paddles for auction, as well as a gallery of the previous year's donations!

Please note: The auction was extended to October 14th at 12pm for folks who are coming into the Park for Thanksgiving weekend!

How It Works

Bidding opens on September 15 and closes on October 14 at 12pm. Starting bid for each paddle is $100.
 
To make a bid on one of the paddles, please visit us at the Outpost at the George Lake entrance. We are also happy to accept bids by phone or email.

If you wish to place a bid over the phone, please give us a call at
(705) 287-2800​​ with the paddle number you would like to bid on. If you wish to bid via email you can send your bid to [email protected] with the paddle number and  
bid amount. 

See current bids in the table below.

Please Note: Paddles will need to be arranged for picked up from the park by the winning bidders by November 10, 2024. They can be collected during the 2025 season, though we will need confirmation on when to expect you.
