Reasons to row in Twizel

One very good reason - the spectacular scenery.
Another reason - the friendly people.
And finally, the winnings..

Tamaki Rowing Photography Competition

All keen photographers are encouraged to get on the river and enter our competition. Entries close 6 October, NEW CLOSING DATE 13 October and cost $10.
Please send large files (2 - 4 mg) to Christine at 158ideas@gmail.com. The photos will be put on display at the Club for people's vote (cost $1 per vote) and then the 12 best printed for an exhibition at the Masters Christmas Party. This is on 7 December.
We'll have a judge to choose the winner, and with those 12 we can also produce a calendar for 2014.

Should be a good way to raise some funds for masters rowing.

Thanks in advance for your support.
Maybe you could organise a photographer to take a portrait of your crew which you can then purchase at the exhibition?

The caption for the above photograph is "How Sue WRIGHT prepares boats for Regattas"

See you there for a warm welcome backs to the Turin people and their medals. Ever hopeful they will unveil the FLAG....

All things new again

So the school rowers are back, really nice to see GDC novices getting a proper induction of safety and around the shed.

Two sessions per weekend now for Masters:

1. Nominate early, late or either/or - this will stay the same for the month.
2. Early session 6.40am - SESSION 1: Arrive at club 6:40am, on water at 7:00am - applies to masters
   training for events
3. SESSION 2: Arrive at club 8:10am, on water at 8:30am (very civilised....) - applies if you are not in an event
4. Training crews have priority for coaching
5. Training crews can book double session
6. First come first served
7. Limit 25 maximum per session

EXCEPTION this weekend 8 Sept, being the last &km race

Both sessions half hour earlier, so the boats are back from the first session in time for 7km race

Therefore FIRST SESSION 6.10 am for on-water at 6.40, then SECOND SESSION 7.40 am for 8.10 am (race starts 8.30 am).

Bringing your own boat may be an option....
