It was established as a non-profit organisation in 1989 in accordance with Part III of the Quebec Companies Act. It was founded by olympian Jean Fournel, Bill Cordner, and Gaetan Desmarais. It is on the site of a former water treatment plant. The Valois Boating Club had formerly been located nearby.

Sports include sprint canoe, sprint kayak, war canoe, standup paddleboarding, and dragon boat. Programs offered include summer camps for children, elite training for athletes, and masters paddling (age 25 and up). The club was Quebec Provincial Champion in 2008, 2009, 2011, 2012, and 2015. Athletes associated with the club include Tom Hall, Christine Gauthier, and Tamas Buday.
