Ice-hopping paddlers to kick off Winterfest

Original Toronto Star caption: Ice-hopping paddlers to kick off Winterfest. If you happened to look out on Toronto harbor yesterday - although it would have taken a hardy soul to be outdoors on such a cold day - you would have seen a sight to chill the blood. Those hardy souls paddling across the frigid waters of the harbor were competitors in the Molson Ontario Ice Canoe Race. It's a test run for next weekend's fourth annual Molson Ice Canoe Race; which kicks off Molson Winterfest '85; two weekends of winter fun Jan. 25-27 and Feb. 1-3.
