INFORMATION
The Mohawk Canoe Club was founded in 1958 by Mike Moir, Bill Dinsmore and Bill Pitt. The club lost their water course when the city reclaimed lake area for Spencer Smith Park. Mohawk eventually merged with Oakville Racing Canoe Club in 1989 to form the Burloak Canoe Club thanks to the help of Andy Jackson, Bill Hersey and Brian Bliss. Members were called the “Mohawks.”
