Lake Banook gears up to host 2022 world canoe and paracanoe championships
More than 1,000 elite athletes and coaches from across the world are expected to make their way to Dartmouth, N.S., for the 2022 International Canoe Federation’s Canoe Sprint and Paracanoe World Championships starting next week on Lake Banook.
Sprint canoeist Katie Vincent, 26, who will represent Canada at the championships, is thrilled to compete in front of the crowd on the waters she trains in every day. She says she believes her ability to navigate the winds on the lake will be a strong advantage for her and her teammates. “It’s great for our athletes to demonstrate how good they are. We have such a great young team and it’s exciting for us. It builds a legacy at all levels and we couldn’t be more thrilled,” says Casey Wade.
