    Default RC Boat clubs in Toronto, Ontario?

    Seeing as I'm new to the boating scene and everything, I was wondering if there were any boat clubs or organizations around the Toronto or Mississauga areas in Ontario.

    Do any of you know of any?

    I believe that there is. I seem to remember seeing a club up there somewhere online. I'll see if I can't find it. Meanwhile, do a search for Toronto on the web.

    You may find it before I have a chance to, but don't despair! I distinctly remember seeing a club based in Toronto.

    Just tell them at the gate you are there for the boat race and you will not have to pay to get in the park
