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.
