INFORMATION
The Calgary Canoe Club was founded in 1959 (registered 1958 under the Societies Act) by John Dicey, an English immigrant, and Chris Von Schoening to bring together the loose groups of paddlers in and around the city. The club aims to develop canoeing and kayaking skills from beginners to high performance athletes. Calgary’s mandate is “to provide an environment for the recruitment and development of athletes in sprint racing disciplines.” The club offers programs in sprint, marathon, outrigger and whitewater boating, promoting safe and enjoyable experiences along the way. Boats and hall are also rented out from the building shared with the Calgary Rowing Club. Calgary first sent competitors to the national championships in 1966 and has both hosted and won the Prairie Division championships on several occasions.
