These rower caused incidents/accidents at Elk Lake are commonplace. The incident noted in the letter
happened January 07. Another incident on November 27, 2010, had an angler rescue a rower from the
water after he collided with one of the large Transport Canada buoys in the lake. If you know of anyone
involved in an incident on Elk Lake please have them file a report with Saanich Police and Transport
Canada. Conditions/restrictions on rowing to alleviate these accidents will not happen unless we all
document the information and file reports.
