Message From The New Owner of DayTripping

Hello Newsletter Subscribers, 

Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Rob Lemmon and I am the proud new owner of Maritime Daytripping Inc. I have taken over the operations from Yennah Hurley in Rockwood Park.


I am a Saint John native having been born here when my parents lived in Renforth. I am happily married to Carolin Galvin, and have two awesome daughters: Madeline (9), and Gabrielle (6) who are both great skiers and climbers!!. I have spent my entire life enjoying the outdoors, and my entire professional career teaching people how to enjoy safe outdoor adventure activities. After over a dozen years teaching at the college/university level, I am now taking a crack at being an entrepreneur. 



My desire is to share my love of the outdoors to the people of New Brunswick so they also can have safe and enjoyable outdoor adventure experiences. I hope to see you all come out and enjoy all that we have to offer at DayTripping.

Rob Lemmon
