INFORMATION |
The
Kew
Beach Amateur Aquatic Association began
in 1911 in the Western Division and competed regularly in
the Dominion Regatta until World War I, sporadically afterwards
until at least 1924. It is likely that the building disappeared
around 1930 as part of the development of the Eastern Beaches
Park. The CCA program from 1921 indicates that Kew Beach's
club colours were orange although this has yet to be separately
confirmed. The only other possibility is purple and white
from the ribbon below. The ladies war canoe paddlers were
known as the "Kaybee Girl Paddlers." Twice,
both in 1912 and again in 1950, the club is referred to
as Kew Beach Canoe Club in national championships programs. |
