We have just started our new year with the election of a new executive. I would like to thank all of you for the vote of confidence in me to be your President. I’m not perfect, but with your help and with the executive, we will endeavor to do the best job we can. My phone will always be accessible, if you see any problems, or have any suggestions, please let me know, nothing gets achieved if you keep it to yourself. Lets try to bring the club back to where it was when I joined. Talk to friends and former mates, let’s try to sign them up, as we are losing so many members. Reach out to members that haven’t been here for awhile and get the membership back on track. I would also like to thank outgoing President S/M Ivan Foote and his executive. They did an excellent job. As in any new position, it will be a learning experience, so please be patient. There are always new challenges to consider. I am familiar with most of our issues, but I’m sure there will be questions on a few, but just remember that we were all Ordinary Seamen at one time so please bear with me. One of our biggest challenges is to get new, young members, let’s work hard as an organization to resolve this.

  • Commodores Coin Very Final6
    THE COMMODORE'S COIN A CATARAQUI 2010 NAVAL CENTENNIAL PROJECT The Commodore's Coin is a 2010 Naval Centennial project for and by the members of the Ship's Company of HMCS CATARAQUI. The purpose of the project was to record the events of the Centennial Year through pictures and text, illustrate the activities of the unit and present the members of the ship—who they are and why they serve in the Naval Reserves of CANADA. I have been amazed by the uniqueness and diversity of the people who make up the Ship's Company, for me this project has been a very interesting and rewarding experience. I am struck by the things that I have learned about my shipmates and most especially their uniqueness despite our shared calling. I am pleased with the results; although I had a vision and a goal going into the project, what has come together far exceeds my initial hope. Although this has been my project, I have been helped by many in many ways - from words of encouragement to support from unexpected quarters, from sailors acting as messengers and couriers, to having help with tedious graphics. Personally, it has been very gratifying to assemble our 2010 story for us and perhaps for those to come. These pages contain the pictures and stories of who we are and records the events of the Centennial Year at CANADA's best naval re- serve division. CPO2 Peter Clarabut Coxswain HMCS CATARAQUI Commanding Officer's Message Welcome to a year in the life of HMCS CATARAQUI! Throughout this Naval Centennial year, this digital scrapbook provides a glimpse into the myriad of activities undertaken by CATARAQUI sailors - at work, at play, in their communities and across the country.
