Photograph - Victorian Canoe Club, Xmas 1930, leaving Studley Park, 1930
Canoeing on the River Yarra at Melbourne was an important and widespread recreational pursuit for Melbournians, especially in the first half of the twentieth century. The Victorian Canoe Club was formed in 1912 at a meeting in Melbourne and its first committee elected in the same year. Records indicate that the Club continued into at least the 1950s .The photos in this album are historically and socially significant as a record of recreational activities in the first half of the twentieth century. A number of photographs in the album provide views of sections of the Yarra, as well as areas in regional Victoria, that may otherwise be unavailable.One of 12 sepia [faded] photographs of members of the Victorian Canoe Club. The first photo reveals three of the four club members leaving their clubhouse in Studley Park to travel downstream to the Lower Yarra and beyond to Port Phillip Bay. "Xmas 1930.
