Chairman's Address - Spring 2001

 

Don Moore

I would like to welcome you to our Web Page.

We have just finished our winter circuit training programme and are now looking forward to being able to get out much more on the river.

The winter period hasn't been very kind to us with the exceptional rain fall this year the river has been in flood for a far longer period than any of us can remember. A lot of regattas have been cancelled.

We have spent a lot of time on the lake at Dorney and also down on the tideway. We were pleased to be able to muster two ladies crews for their Head of river race and a Novice crew in the main Head with the vets rowing in the Vesta Head on the following day.

With a bit of good weather and the clocks going forward shortly it will be nice to see crews going out during the week.
If the weather is reasonable you will find members down most evenings during the week and both Saturday and Sunday mornings. It's a good time to come along now as crews are being made up much later this year because of the bad weather.

So either come down or call the club on 01784 453595 or if that fails give me a ring on my mobile 07831 385090.
