CIBC member Paul Chamberland hit the ice on Owlseye Lake, a tad east NE from Edmonton, Alberta. Last season he was first on the ice at Lac Aurelie in Quebec, often our first plate. He had traveled from Albany. Isn’t it so that the furthest away often is the first to arrive?

The lesson, as always, is that if you really want to sail you need to make the drive. Come spring, when the ice at Moosehead is two feet thick and the sun is high, remember this.
Congratulations Paul!
