Under Kirk’s guidance, Kandalore became known as one of the world’s premier canoeing and canoe tripping facilities.
Kirk also founded the Canadian Canoe Museum on the Kandalore site in what we now refer to as “The Museum”. In 1997 the museum, which had become a world-class collection, moved to Peterborough. Kirk was awarded the Order of Canada in 2002 for his work in camping and canoeing.
