What’s behind our name?
Wogg Christy, a former Educator-Naturalist at Fontenelle Forest…was leading a summer camp group, along the South Feeder Stream Marsh, and she heard the Bull Frog calling out!….WOOGGG!!  Being a frog, Wogg, the frog, lives along and in the water for its home, keeps its skin moist, has food at its doorstep…of course, unless the water dries up.
Water is important for our lives too…quenches our thirst, cleanses, cools, refreshes, gives moisture to our bodies…but.as kayakers…we need water…it gives us a way to explore on the water, enjoy time together, exercise or to meditate, de-stress, let nature speak to us,  renew and lift our spirits.
