Update: July 10, 2009

Update from the Fair Jeanne:

Fair Jeanne left Ramouski early this morning and they are now underway going towards Gaspé, QC. The weather is much more enjoyable now and this run will be about 23 hours. If the weather continues to hold-up they will continue through Gaspé onto another leg of their trip toward Halifax.

Also, Bytown Brigantine would like to congratulate the Great Lake Swimmers who played an open air concert aboard the Fair Jeanne last month for making the short list for the Polaris Music Prize to be awarded in September.

Update from Black Jack:

Last night the crew and trainees had their ship’s concert which was a great success. Today is the last day of camp and despite the weather everyone had a great time and will certainly miss each other.

Another final reminder that pick up will be at noon in Quyon. Check Back to the blog next week to see some pictures from the camp!
