INFORMATION
The Ona-Lac Canoe Club started in 1968, founded by Joseph Derochie of Sudbury. The club began as a sprint club, as Onaping-Levack Canoe Club, and lasted until 1977.

* Coach and Commodore, Joe Derochie, was ineligible to race for the 1968 season due to his participation in the Canadian Centennial Canoe Pageant (1967) from Edmonton to Montreal. His involvement was deemed professional as opposed to amateur.

The Onaping Falls Ona-Lac Canoe Club still operates today on Windy Lake.
