Seasonal Photo of the Week

Ho-ho-ho. Our Photo of the week comes from Sunday’s Santa Parade. Clowning around was Paul Henderson multi-medal sailing champion, Member of IOC etc. His resume goes on extensively but he appears pretty happy on shore, walking the Parade route.

 

 

 

 

Here’s what Paul wrote in a note with his pic

Yesterday was the Santa Claus Parade Day in Toronto.

I was born 83 years ago on this day.

120 Sponsors help fund the parade and get the right to be a clown.

Thanks to those who gave me this Birthday Present.

My God he has Hair!!

It was great fun walking for 8 km and seeing the kids from so many different backgrounds and then going back to the RCYC and seeing the kids there.
regards,

Paul Henderson OLY

However, by embracing innovative solutions and adopting sustainable practices, both marinas and boaters hold the key to preserving and enhancing the quality of our lakes and marine life for generations to come.
