The coordinates for the Washington Canoe Club are 77.071863 W and 38.904553 N, and they were obtained in January 2013 with, it is assumed, NAD 1983. There is no restriction on the release of the locational data to the public. For research purposes, in the land records for the District of Columbia the Washington Canoe Club was described as within the boundaries of parcel 27/36 in the 1910s and by the 1980s as in square 1180, lot 1. Present Owner/ Occupant: Today, the building is on land within the boundaries of the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal National Historical Park. The clubhouse was built in the early 1900s by the Washington Canoe Club, and subsequently maintained by the Canoe Club membership. After a fire and life safety inspection revealed areas of concern, the National Park Service (NPS) closed the building in 2010.1 The boathouse was unoccupied from that time until early in 2013.

Most of the world’s biggest cities are located by large rivers. These waterways are so important that they are respected, venerated, even worshipped. While the River Ganges in India is deified as Mother Ganges, a life- giving nurturing goddess, in London the river is personified as Old Father Thames. This walk between Molesey and Kingston explores a short section of the non-tidal river to find out about its physical characteristics – its flow and floods, its islands and meanders. The walk also tells the story of the river’s many roles - as a place to live, a place to work and a place to play.

  • Safety Policy Note: Throughout This Policy the Word ‘Canoe’ Is Taken to Include All Types of Canoe, Kayak and Other Watercraft and Boats Used by Club Members
    ROYAL CANOE CLUB Safety Policy Note: Throughout this policy the word ‘canoe’ is taken to include all types of canoe, kayak and other watercraft and boats used by club members. The word ‘canoeist’ is taken to mean anyone using a canoe, kayak or other watercraft and boats at the club. 1. GENERAL POLICY The Royal Canoe Club demands its members take a responsible attitude toward their safety and the safety of others at all times when using its premises or representing the club. 2. EMERGENCY SERVICES First Aid Boxes and defibrillators are located in both clubhouses. The nearest hospital for serious injuries is Kingston Hospital. There is a small accident and emergency unit in Teddington but this is only open during the day. If you have reason to believe an injury may be severe and urgent medical assistance may be required, dial 999 and ask for an ambulance. 3. THE MAIN RISKS The main risks to canoeists paddling from Royal Canoe Club are: ● collision ● hypothermia ● drowning ● water-borne illness Other related problems that require planning and consideration are: ● damage to club or personal equipment ● spoiling the enjoyment of the river for others 4. GENERAL PRINCIPLES OF CANOEIST SAFETY Buoyancy aids These are provided by the club for use by members during formal instruction sessions. British Canoeing Sprint and Marathon Racing Rules require the use of buoyancy aids in certain situations. Any Junior member must assume buoyancy aids are required unless told otherwise by their coach, each time they get onto the water. The parent/guardian of all junior members are required to give written permission for a junior member to paddle without a buoyancy aid.
