CWC STAFF
Canine Watersports Canada is owned by Karen & Mark Larocque, which officially launched in January 2016, however they have been involved in the world of dock-jumping since 2008 which is evident in their growth and success. CWC is recognized as Canada’s FIRST 100% Canadian owned and operated dock-jumping company.
Karen works diligently behind the scenes working with hosts and sponsors but can be seen at events on her scooter and Mark is not only "truck driver", but is the events coordinator, and also a CWC certified judge.
Karen and Mark, own 3 Australian Shepherds...
Doug has CWC titles in Master Jump. Senior Grab and Novice Lure. In 2023 he earned a Top Dog Toss title, and ended the season ranked 1st in Novice Grab and 5th in Top Toss, out of all the dogs who competed with CWC in 2023.
Stewie is not a jumper but he managed to finish his first season with a Novice Jump title and he ended the 2023 season ranked 5th in Junior Jump.
In December 2022 we rescued a 7.5 month old Aussie who we named Walter. he finished 2023 (his first season dock jumping) with a Master Jump title, Top Dog Grab title, a Top Dog Toss Title, as well as a Novice Lure. Not bad for his first year of competing.
Our Aussies' are fuelled by Back2Raw, kept in shape by CRS Mobile Rehab and enjoy treats from Slobbers Organic Dog Treats.

Lynn Campbell is known as the voice of CWC or the ‘Announcer’.
She was first introduced to this crazy, addictive sport of dock jumping in 2010, with her ‘Golden Boy’, Jasper, and in 2018 her Australian Shepherd, Dazzle, joined the team.
Lynn earned her ‘red shirt’ status in 2015, and has been the voice behind the mic since then. Quote from Lynn..."(I know, right? It seems like a lot longer) I just want to be clear, I did warn Mark & Karen that that they may just be sorry that they turned the mic over to me."
When she is not on the dock or at pool side, Lynn can be found at Cricket’s Canine Country Club, where she works as an Instructor for Puppies, Rally Obedience, Agility, & of course Dock. Lynn also co-hosts a dog camp each year called Cricket’s Camp Merrywoof, which is an all inclusive weekend of fun & laughter for you & your dog, and truly a dog-lovers weekend!

Blair and Grace Holierhoek live in Charleston Lake, Ontario, roughly 40 minutes northeast of Kingston, Ontario.
Blair has a combined 16 years experience in Dock Diving, and his wife Grace was brought into the sport in 2021. After Covid, Blair and Grace got back into dock diving with the CWC and have been bitten by the bug, and enjoy helping at every event.
They have two yellow labs (Rebel and Duke), a black lab (Cali) who was a guide dog drop out, and one senior miniature dachshund Chuck who enjoys swimming off the ramp and cheering on his siblings from the sidelines. All three of their labs compete in all the divisions (toss, lure, grab and jump), and have their eyes on the Elite Canadian Championship Title.
Blair can be seen during setup, tear down and general help around the dock during events and "try-its", while Grace is doing the same and helping from an administrative perspective.
