LISA VAUGHAN, PRINCIPAL – CHAMPION – FRED LYNCH MEMORIAL CANOE RACE
Our Principal; Lisa Vaughan participated in the Fred Lynch Memorial Canoe Race this past weekend and came in first place along with her C2 partner.  The Fred Lynch Memorial Canoe Race began in 1985 as a way to recognize the tremendous effort ‘Freddie' put into teaching paddling in Dartmouth.  The race Ms. Vaughan and her partner won was raced in a Marathon C2 pro boat.  She and her partner raced a 16km course from Lake Banook to Lake Charles and back.  On behalf of staff and students, I would like to say ‘CONGRATULATIONS” to Ms. Vaughan!
