EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken around 1907, captures the serene atmosphere of the Canoe Club located in Riverside Park, Indianapolis, Indiana. The image showcases the picturesque clubhouse, nestled along the banks of the White River. The two-story building, with its columned porch and shingled roof, exudes an air of elegance and exclusivity, reflecting the privileged pastime of canoeing during the early 20th century. The club's grounds extend beyond the clubhouse, with lush greenery and well-manicured lawns providing a scenic backdrop for members to enjoy their leisurely pursuits. The White River, meandering calmly in the foreground, adds to the idyllic setting, offering members the opportunity to engage in their favorite water sport. The Canoe Club, a membership-based organization, provided its members with access to a range of facilities, including changing rooms, storage for their canoes, and a social space to gather and unwind after a day on the water. The club's heritage is evident in this photograph, which offers a glimpse into the past and the rich history of recreational activities in Indianapolis during the early 1900s. This photograph, a dry plate negative glass 8 x 10 in, is part of the vast collection held by the Library of Congress, a testament to the importance of preserving our nation's history and cultural heritage for future generations.
