INFORMATION
Although originally conceived in 1972, the Maskwa Aquatic Club wasn't firmly established until 1974, joining the CCA two years later. Maskwa provides facilities for swimming, sprint canoe-kayak and recreational canoeing. The club has produced many paddlers at the national level and serves both the Halifax and Bedford communities. Due to population growth in the area, Maskwa underwent a major expansion including a new boathouse, beach and docks, combining their two separate buildings into one. “Maskwa” is Mi’Kmaq for “birch groves.”
