ROWED TRIP Live Show and Film Screening
In Fall 2009, Colin and Julie took their newest show Rowed Trip to 20 communities across Canada.
ROWED TRIP
This show is designed to inspire, entertain and amuse. Part film, part drama and all humour, it will delight not only the adventurous but anyone who has discovered the delights and challenges of travelling with a spouse. Using two rowboats, Colin and Julie voyage 7,200 km from the northern tip of Scotland to Aleppo, Syria via an interconnected route of rivers, canals, ancient transportation corridors, oceans and coastlines. Over the course of seven months the couple row through thirteen countries and explore their ancestral homelands.
THE SHOW
The two hour show includes a multimedia show by Colin and Julie, followed by the 57 minute documentary. Their last tour garnered great reviews from the more than 6,000 people who attended and previous films have won numerous awards including the Best Adventure Film at both the Telluride and Taos Mountain Film Festivals.
You will also have the opportunity to win some great prizes, including:
Grand Prizes:
Helly Hansen Ekolab Jacket Womens (value $325.00)

Colin is one of the speakers at the 2009 ideaCity Conference, a three day event (June 17 to 19, 2009) known as ‘Canada’s Premiere Meeting of the Minds’. It is an eclectic gathering of artists, adventurers, authors, cosmologists, doctors, designers, entertainers, filmmakers, inventors, magicians, musicians, scientists and technologists.
Fifty of the planet’s brightest minds converge on Toronto each June to speak to a highly engaged audience. Only 497 are privileged to attend.
Produced and presented by Moses Znaimer, ideaCity is not themed around any one topic, issue or business. There are no scripted speeches or, breakout or parallel sessions. Rather, everyone is in one place and in on the same narrative.
With extra-long schmooze breaks between sessions, and legendary parties each night, attendees have had an unprecedented opportunity to mingle with such notable speakers as Conrad Black, Barbara Gowdy, Michael Ignatieff, Douglas Coupland, Pamela Wallin, Pete Seeger, Robert Kennedy Jr., John Ralston Saul, Daniel Libeskind, Clayton Ruby, Romeo Dallaire and the late Peter Jennings.
Tickets are $4,000 door/ $3,700 advance and more information is available at: www.ideacityonline.com.
