PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE
by Judy Saunders
Where has this summer gone? I hope you all had some time to use your boats as well as give them some
TLC.
Our cruise nights have been very successful – we have had good turnouts, most people show up at the
correct house and the weather has been threatening but not bad enough to cancel our get-togethers. All
of our hosts have offered superb hospitality – thank you to Dinah and David Scholfield, Ron and Wilma
Jelley, Sarah and Murray Gould, Susan and John Richardson, and Elena Abramova and Richard Macleod.
Photos from this year’s cruise nights are available on our Facebook page, here.
This year’s boat show at Long Island Locks had great weather, great boats, ran smoothly and had record
attendance. As always, this success can be attributed to our faithful committee chairs and volunteers on
show day; also, our partnerships with Parks Canada and Harvest House Ministries continue to prosper.
We are very grateful to these show chairs:
Show Chair and Major Sponsors: Ray Saunders
Local Sponsors: David Scholfield
Registration: Susan and John Richardson
Site Facilities: Richard Macleod and Rick Beaudry
Publicity: Mark Krzyzanowski and Judy Saunders
Dock Masters: James Bond and Ron Jelley
Judging: Murray Gould
Awards: Dinah Scholfield
Kids’ Program: Wilma Jelley
Social: Heather Phelan and Dinah Scholfield
Announcer: Al Goodwright
Thanks to Ian Wyllie for initiating discussions with Parks Canada for repairs to existing docks and supply
of additional new ones. We are now pleased to announce that before the 2011 show, Parks Canada
completed an initial batch of docks with MCBC financial support for materials; we have also signed an
agreement laying out roles for the future to enhance our show at the Long Island Lock site. Additionally,
thank you to ALL of our volunteers for making this year’s show a smooth running success!
Our final and favourite outing for the season is the Burritt’s Rapids Run on Sunday September 24.
Remember no matter what the weather, we will dress appropriately and show up (by any means of
transportation) with contributions to the pot luck lunch and your last tall tales of the summer.


A slide show about the frills, chills and spills on the August 2010 "Voyage to Lower Canada" (river
run from Manotick to the Montreal Classic Boat Show). Thanks to Ron Jelley for reviewing
thousands of photos to assemble this show.
A presentation (with Power Point slides!) by Jim Potter about creation of Mahogany Harbour in
Manotick led to many other reminiscences among long term members.
Information provided by Louis Gagnon on the 2011 river run planned from St Jean sur
Richelieu along the Richelieu and St. Lawrence Rivers to the Montreal Classic Boat Festival in
Montreal
Other planned events such as Portland to Rideau Ferry rendezvous in June.

PORTLAND TO RIDEAU FERRY RUN – AUGUST 13TH 2011
Skies were gray on June 25 but spirits were high: all of us enjoyed the run from Portland to the Shipwreck
restaurant in Rideau Ferry. Chris Grant and Jim Potter offered navigating directions as well as stories and
history about boats and their families around the lake. Thanks to Chris Spooner for coordinating the
event!

Well folks, we did it again! Another boat has gone by and we lucked out with the weather. We had a
gorgeous day with abundant sunshine and a nice breeze. The show was well attended by the public and
we had a nice variety of boats on display. Enjoy some photos taken by Mark Krzyzanowski. The

ON THE ROAD - A SEASON FULL OF BOAT SHOWS
by Mark Krzyzanowski
It’s hard to believe that we’re into September already, but with boat shows every other weekend..the time
seems to fly! Some of the trips included the Gravenhurst Boat Show, Clayton Antique Boat Show &
Auction, Rideau Ferry Raceboat Regatta, and the Buffalo Boat Show & Raceboat Regatta. I must have put
on a few thousand miles this season, but saw some interesting boats and met a lot of great people. Here
are some links to photos I took at some of the events!
