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.

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
