INFORMATION

The Cataraqui Canoe Club was founded in Kingston in 1934, and organised by 1937. Membership in the CCA ceased in 1946 after WWII but the club was revived again in 1964 by Moira Stanton of Sudbury and Peter Eggleton of Montreal. A new boathouse was constructed in 1980 in conjunction with the local rowing club and by 2000, the sprint program relocated to Sydenham Lake, subsequently becoming a separate member of the CCA (see Sydenham Lake Canoe Club). Cataraqui immediately withdrew its membership. Original club colours of red and royal blue were listed in the 1940 program and red and black in the 1947 program.

* In 1886, the original Cataraqui Canoe Club was formed and was a member of the ACA until 1896 when members were invited to merge with the new Kingston Yacht Club.
