I am thrilled to support the non-profit Banook Canoe Club as they work to restore and revitalize their historic building along the shores of beautiful Lake Banook in Dartmouth.

We delivered funding to help them engage architectural and engineering expertise to draft plans for a historical revitalization that will result in an efficient and inclusive facility for athletes and visitors.

For over 120 years, the Banook Canoe Club has served our community. From those who enjoy paddling for physical and social activity, to athletes following their Olympic dreams—the Banook Canoe Club enhances quality of life for residents in Dartmouth while providing integral facilities for international events.

I can’t wait to see this iconic building preserved, enhanced, and fully accessible for our community to enjoy today and well into the future.

The Banook Canoe Club has launched their “Paddles Up” capital campaign to complete this amazing project, you can learn more on their website:
