Description
This
photograph
from the
1960s
shows
people
canoeing
on
Lower
Shaker
Lake
in
Shaker
Heights
,
Ohio
.
It
measures
8.65
"
x
11.35
"
(22
x
29
cm)
. The
building
behind
the
canoers
is
the
clubhouse
for the
Shaker
Lakes
Canoe
Club
,
which
was
built
several
years
after
the
club
was
established
in
1907
.
Members
of the
club
stored
their
canoes
in the
lower
level
of the
clubhouse
, and
socialized
on the
second
floor
by a
big
brick
fireplace
in the
dining
room
. For
nearly
60
years
,
members
held
picnics
and
canoe
tournaments
,
races
, and
regattas
on the
lake
.
One
summer
in the
1930s
,
about
a
dozen
Club
members
decided
to
spend
a
month
at the
clubhouse
,
working
at their
jobs
by
day
and
returned
to the
boathouse
to
sleep
at
night
. In
1966
,
Shaker
Heights
City
Council
terminated
the
Canoe
Club's
right
to
maintain
and
use
the
clubhouse
,
because
they
felt
that the
club's
possession
of the
clubhouse
was in
violation
of the
park's
provision
that "
all
of the
property
shall
be
open
to any
member
of the
public
on a
non-exclusive
basis.
" By
1974
, the
clubhouse
was in
complete
disrepair
;
it
was
razed
in
1976
.
