Today we share the typed minutes from a meeting at what was most likely a cold day in February of 1956. It would be a while before the club procured a clubhouse of their own own so these meetings were held at the St. Vital hotel. I like the details of the raffle and the signatures of the President and Secretary.

The precursor to our boating club that was mentioned in the last blog was the Greater Winnipeg Boating Association that was formed in the early fifties. A poster advertising for memberships at 3$ per year has been saved and is shown below. The large lettered RIVER FILTH attracts your attention, how was it not more successful?

Welcome to midwinter. For the enjoyment of members and to possibly encourage new members to join there will be the occasional post coming to share some of the artifacts that have been preserved concerning the history of the club.
Today the item to be shared is a typed one page history of the club that was written some time after 1964.

With record rainfall in September the waters of the Red River have risen to the point where it was dangerous to have our boats attached to the rising docks, so the boating season came to an abrupt end last week. Thank you to all members who helped out and got their boats out of the water on short notice.

The Club is offering docking only until the season end, which is scheduled for the weekend of October 6th. All boats, including members boats will have to have to be out by then. This special will cost $100.00.
