INFORMATION |
The
Bow
Waters Canoe Club was founded 1972 as the
Chestermere Canoe Club,
changed to East Calgary
Canoe Club in 1973 and finally Bow
Waters in 1974 to avoid confusion with the Calgary
Canoe Club. The club is currently a whitewater
organisation but was a member of the CCA throughout the
1970s until as late as 1984. The origins of the club arose
from a desire for more competition for the
Calgary Canoe Club as the only member of the
Alberta Flatwater Canoe Association. Herb Benthin was heavily
involved in the organisation of both this club and the
Bearspaw Canoe Club. |
