It’s on Dan Cooke’s FB page. Sorry, I have PTSD after the last time I posted a FB link…it hijacks the thread into the evils of social media or 50 posts bragging about how they never use FB, instead of focusing on remembering a canoe legend….but since you asked.

If someone wants me to RSVP on FB I’ll try to keep up on FB for ya.

I plan to attend.


I only met Dan a few times but always found the experience rewarding.

What a wonderful event, and what a great turnout! I really wish that we could have been there. You can't believe how many times during the day I thought of you all celebrating Dan's life the best way possible - in canoes.

There were almost 50 canoes on the water honoring the many communities that Dan Cooke was a part of. It was beautiful.

Regrettably I have to apologize that I will still be here in China until Aug 19. I will miss the memorial but please know I will be there in spirit. I’ll look to my friend Austin to be there in his canoe in my stead.


Sending love to the memory of a very special man.

I apologize if this was posted somewhere else, but a fellow member shared this with me today and thought others would want to know. Thanks BWCAgoer

“Hello all, Nathan here. We are planning a get together for Dad at Lake Nokomis on August 10th from 10am-2pm. Hoping to have a canoe parade at noon, so bring your boat, your paddle and PFD. We will have some refreshments available at the pavilion. Please RSVP to this post so we have an idea of how many to expect. Please feel free to share to get the word out!”

I might try to make it out on my Paddleboard.


Perhaps throw an empty CCS pack on my back, or strap to the bow. :(
