INFORMATION |
The
Deseronto
Canoe Club was founded with fifteen
members in 1884 by F.S. Rathbun who went on to become ACA
Commodore two years later. In 1885, Rathbun organised what
was to be known as the first "Canadian Canoe Club Meet"
at Deseronto and presented a handsome cup to be raced for
monthly during the 1885 season. Deseronto expected to build
a large boathouse in the spring of 1885 according to "The
American Canoeist" magazine, April 1885. |
