The
Lachine Rowing Club
was one of two disciplines formed out of the revived
Lachine Boating Club
in 1919. With a strong rivalry with their namesakes,
the Lachine Racing Canoe
Club, Lachine Rowing dominated the Lachine
canoeing scene for the first four years after revival.
Eventually, as rowing took precedence, the club moved
away from the CCA to focus on other exploits. After
folding by 1961 (last year of racing), the club was
revived in the 1990s and is now a top-level rowing club.
Lachine Rowing Club hosted
the Eastern Division Championships in 1919 at Dixie
(just west of Lachine) and captured silver in Intermediate
C1 at Nationals.
