INFORMATION |
Port
Moody Canoe Club
was founded in 1967 by Bill Collins, entered the
Association in 1969 and received many of their boats from
the BC Kayak
& Canoe Club. Port Moody
was the first BC club to win points at the national championships
and competed at the national championships until about 1980
when a powerboat launch was built on the inlet making paddling
extremely dangerous. The construction of the Old Mill Boathouse,
which now houses the Port Moody
Canoe & Kayak Club, traces its roots to
the original Port Moody Canoe Club and the Centennial Sailing
Association. (Club logo has been reimagined based on
member descriptions) |
