| INFORMATION |
|
The
Oakville
Racing Canoe Club was founded in 1974 by
Bill Collins and Dorothy Jamieson. The club occupied a former
sewage treatment plant through to the merger with the Mohawk
Canoe Club in 1989 when the Burloak
Canoe Club was formed. The Oakville
club was the main site until the construction of a new boathouse
in 1994. The club's original colours are listed as orange
with blue and white in several club regatta programs, up
to and including 1983. It may be a simple coincidence that
these were the same colours of the defunct White
Oaks Canoe Club which folded in 1974. |
