Saint John Power Boat Club Celebrates 100th Anniversary

     How the Club Has Grown

The Saint John Power Boat Club was organized on April 28th 1910, at a meeting of power boat owners and others, held at the”Temple of Honor” hall, Main Street, North End, forty seven being the original number of the membership. At this meeting Officers were elected and at a subsequent meeting held a week afterwards during which time the membership had jumped to one hundred and fifty, organization was completed and the executive chosen.  Then began the work of providing the necessary club facilities and premises. Marble Cove was selected as the place for the club station and work was immediately begun erecting a magnificent club house which now stands as a monument to the enterprise and energy of the members under the direction of , Commodore  Stephen P. Gerow.( as seen in photo)
