| INFORMATION |
| The
Gananoque Canoe and Motorboat Club
was established in 1906 by a gang of boys who loved to canoe
on the weekends. From those humble early days, the club went
on to win three consecutive national championships. Although
the club withdrew from the Northern Division in 1939, they
returned before too long with a string of Northern Division
championships. Gananoque continues to provide canoeing and
kayaking programs for the Gananoque community east of Kingston.
They now operate out of the John Wing Clubhouse, built in
1974 on the Gananoque river to provide a calmer training course
for small boats. Original colours: Red, Blue and White. |
