C. Fred Johnson Trophy

Open Men’s K4, 200m

Donated by Friends of Fred Johnston. C. Fred Johnston’s name is synonymous with canoeing in Canada. Fred’s involvement with paddling began at the Sudbury Canoe Club in the 1950s where he won several medals at the National Championships, particularly in crew boats. Upon a career move to Kingston, Fred was instrumental in rejuvenating the Cataraqui Canoe Club. He became involved in officiating and served as the Eastern Ontario Division Flag Officer from 1973-1976. The following year, Fred served as Vice Commodore of the Canadian Canoe Association and then served two years as Commodore from 1978-1979. Fred’s vast knowledge of canoe sport led him to become involved on an international level with the International Canoe Federation. Fred acted as chair of the ICF Public Relations Committee for sixteen years from 1984 until 2000. In 1983, Fred was presented with the R. Edgar Gilbert award by the CCA, a prestigious recognition of his contributions as a builder within the canoe-kayak community. But what Fred is most known for is his historical contributions to Canadian canoeing. In 1975, Fred initiated a call to action from paddling alumni to contribute items to a proposed Canoe Museum. These items eventually became the beginnings of the CCA archives, a vast collection of materials from across the country, collected and stored where else, but in Fred’s basement! This in turn led to Fred’s publication “The Book of Champions” in 1984, a complete list of medalists from each National Championships race dating back to the first championships in 1900. The Book of Champions was updated and expanded in 2003 to include a wealth of racing information beyond just the National Championships.
