Old LMYC Newsletters

The LaSalle Currents newsletter was created and was first published in February 1975 by Gord Freeman. It was later edited and published by Richard Parchoma, Ralph Kepran, Roger Renaud, and Dennis Pare.

Where did the name “LaSalle Currents” originate? In 1974, at the annual Cedar Island Regatta, there was a sign at the banquet that stated “LaSalle Mariners eat currents”, a nod to the skill required to race on the Detroit River.

Thanks to Jeff Williams for digitizing these old club newsletters and to Yvonne McRobbie for holding onto them all these years.
