The evening of the 26th the club houses 
bordering the Allegheny were elaborately deco¬ 
rated with Japanese lanterns, and the many 
canoes on the water were similarly illuminated. 
Fire works at the camp site added to the 
brilliancy of the scene. The various clubs kept 
open house during the evening. 
On the following morning, the business meet¬ 
ing was called at io o’clock, Vice-Commodore 
James presiding, and John S. Wright, of 
Rochester, acting as secretary. The following 
officers for 1910 were elected: Vice-Commo 
dore, Henry D. James. Pittsburg. Pa.; Rear- 
Commodore, Lyman T. Coppins, Buffalo, N. 
YPurser, John S. Wright, Rochester. N. Y., 
Executive Committee—Alton Brown, Pittsburg, 
Pa • H. S. Sturdevant, Rome, N. Y.; Floyd 
Brown, Rochester. N. Y.; Member of Board of 
Governors. Jesse J. Armstrong. Rome N. Y.; 
Member Racing Board, Harry M. btewart. 
Rochester, N. Y. , . 
The division recommended C. P. Forbush, ot 
Buffalo, as its choice for Commodore for 1910 
and voted to hold a division regatta at Pitts¬ 
burg in June, 1910. 
The annual camp and meeting of the Atlantic 
Division of the American Canoe Association 
was held on Huntington Bay, Long Island, 
from the 10th to the 17th of July. About 
seventy members were registered, with upward 
of thirty-five tents, in a picturesque half-moon 
along the top of a curving bluff, close to the 
water’s edge. . . . 
The transportation facilities were excellent; 
a covered barge carried all canoes and duffle 
from the various Hudson River clubs, stopping 
for passengers on the East River, thence by 
tow, directly off the camp, where it lay during 
the week—a good place from which to view the 
races, and affording a “home for the friend¬ 
less” for those in camp without tents or duffle. 
The return trip was made in the same way, giv¬ 
ing a delightful trip through the Sound Hell 
Gate, the East and Hudson rivers to the Knick¬ 
erbocker C. C., where all the cargo was dis¬ 
charged. . . 
A number of short cruises m the many ad¬ 
jacent bays were taken during the week, while 
the races were run off on occasional days, with 
the more important events scheduled for Satur¬ 
day, the 17th. . _. . . „ . ... . „ 
The next Atlantic Division affair will be a 
three days’ camp at Hermit Point, on the 
Hudson, 4th, 5th and 6th of September, with 
regatta. „ , 
The annual election of officers was held on 
July 17. This meeting was called to order by 
Vice-Commodore Andreas. Reading of the 
minutes of the previous meeting was dispensed 
with, and the chairman called for report of t-he 
nominating committee, which had held, a meet¬ 
ing earlier in the day to prepare a ticket for 
approval of the members. This was made, and 
in the election which followed the following 
were chosen for officers: Vice-Commodore, 
Theodore Quasehart; Rear-Commodore Robert 
F Tims- Purser Frank T. Wilson; Members 
of Executive Committee—L. Reichert Elmer 
B Ayres W A. Furman, Frederic Andreas.. 
'it was ’then decided that the present division 
officers take up at the next executive committee 
meeting the question of a larger representation 
on the racing board. Wm. J. Flinn, Purser.
