Dear Club Member,
I thought I would take the opportunity to provide you with a brief
update on the latest club activities and news for April.
*_Boat House Opening_*
I am very pleased to say that we have officially opened the new boat
house. Dom Lopez OAM, Mayor of Mosman alongside Bryan Weir, Club
President opened the curtain to unveil the official opening plaques on
April 4. The ceremony was followed by a dinner at which Vice Captain
John Dollison received Lifetime Membership. The main room upstairs was
also dedicated to Bryan Weir for his instrumental work in getting the
building financed and built. Watch out for the big news story in the
Mosman Daily next Thursday!
I would like to extend a special thank you to the members who helped me
organise the event, set up and clean up afterwards - particularly Annie,
Amy, Alfie, Kieran, Zoe and Julia.
*_CBA Launch_*
Thursday 16^th marked the launch of the Commonwealth Bank Corporate
Regatta at Mosman Rowing Club. For those who may not be aware, this is
the largest fundraising event of the clubs calendar year and critical to
our ongoing operation. I would like to thank Tony Blay in his tireless
effort in organising the event as well as the vast group of volunteer
coaches, members on pontoon or BBQ duty and all other supporters.
The Corporate rowers will commence training at the club this Saturday
until the middle of May and I ask all members to give them a warm welcome.
If you are interested in showing your support for the club and
volunteering your time to help in the event please contact Tony Blay or
myself.
*_Australian Selection Trials_*
The Australian Rowing Selection Trials will be starting today (Friday
17^th ) and continuing for 10 days. I wish all our athletes (Dan Noonan,
Olivia Heath, Tom Wear, James Franki, Eliza Flint, Charlie Marriott,
Marianna Doumanis and Henry MacPhillamy) the best and ask everyone to
support them by allowing them to stay focused on the job by minimising
any other club distractions.
*_Other Matters_*
*_ _*
On other matters I wanted to highlight the importance of safety on the
water (including the use of lights and ‘logging’ all Club boats being
used in the log book prior to getting on the water).
I also wanted to highlight that if you come across any boat damages or
breakages, please report them to Tony Blay who will sort matters out
accordingly.
If you have any suggestions or ideas about the club, or would like to
help in any of our future fundraising events, please do not hesitate to
contact me.
May I wish you all happy rowing this month.
Regards
**Sarah Hill Captain******
