As anyone who has visited the Canadian Canoe Museum is aware, the current location on Monaghan Road in Peterborough, is a less than ideal venue for the display and preservation of its world-famous canoe and kayak collection. The museum is located in what was once a factory of the old Outboard Marine Corporation. Plans are afoot for moving the museum to more suitable home in Peterborough's downtown, and on the waterfront to facilitate actual on-water canoe activities. Specific plans will be made available to the public later this year. For details of the plans as they unfold, keep your eye on the museum's website.
