Peter Salmon enjoyed one of the great Canadian swimming careers of the 1940s and early 1950s. At the 1950 British Empire Games, Peter became the only Canadian swimmer to win a gold medal along with two silvers. In his halcyon days of swimming, 1946 to 1952, Peter set six Canadian breaststroke and medley records and represented Canada at the 1948 London and 1952 Helsinki Summer Olympics. A well-rounded high school student he went on to study medicine and became a world-renowned transplant specialist. As a student at the University of Washington he made All-American and in 1951 set an NCAA record in the 50-yard freestyle that stood for 40 years. The Washington team won all their dual meets and divisional championships every year he competed with them. In his time, Peter Salmon was among Canada's best swimmers and he is a member of the BC Sports Hall of Fame.

Art Stott was a great Canadian diver and he represented his nation at the British Empire Games and at the Olympics. During the 1920s, Art became Vancouver Island and B.C. senior men's champion and earned two golds, two silvers and a bronze in five national championships. Art placed second in the Canadian trials for the first British Empire (now Commonwealth) Games in 1930 and he placed second in springboard at the Canadian trials for the 1932 Los Angeles Summer Olympics. His diving prowess was evident as a 13-year-old when he won the Junior Boys Pacific Northwest three-metre title in 1923. As well as his competitive diving accomplishments, Art competed in England with the Highgate Diving Club, putting on acrobatic shows for awe-struck audiences. He became an international diving judge and was a founding member of the B.C. Sports Hall of Fame.
