Women paddling across Canada to raise awareness of cystic fibrosis
MEDICINE HAT, AB — Three women from Manitoba are paddling across Canada to raise money and awareness for a cause close to their heart.
Kendra Hurley, Claire Davis and Rylea McEvoy, also known at the Byway Babes, began their cross-Canada canoe journey a month ago in British Columbia to help Cystic Fibrosis Canada. They arrived in Medicine Hat on Wednesday afternoon.
The group has been planning to paddle across Canada for two years, says Davis.
