Further to the article in NetLetter #1558 about ACRA.
I wanted to share with you that it goes farther back to TCARA - Trans-Canada Air Lines Recreation Association.
Besides the list of sports that you mentioned, TCARA YUL also organized picnics with a trip to the beach. See attached picture, dated July 11, 1959.

We recently contacted Robert Arnold, Canadian Researcher/Archivist at the Royal Aviation Museum of Western Canada (Winnipeg, Manitoba) for photos of the Vickers Viscounts stored at the museum
Robert replied -
These photos were supplied to me through my friend and colleague Keith Olson. They were taken the following summer after their retirement in 1975. Most of the photos show registration CF-TIE (Fin #649), which was the museum’s first Viscount. |

A group of Viscounts on April 30, 1974.
All were sold to Beaver Enterprises Ltd. |

CF-TIE (Fin #649)
On April 28, 1973 operated the final Viscount service between Vancouver (YVR) and Victoria (YYJ) before retirement. On April 29 it was ferried from Vancouver to Calgary, Regina and finally Winnipeg.
