Opportunity to try Rowing

Otago University Rowing club have offered the use of their rowing boats to give youths and their whanau (families) an experience of a life time (thousands of $ worth).

Several community groups will be participating in this day. Activities and events look like they will range from 'give it a try' activities to some races.

Proposed details:

• 11 Oct 2009 8am-11am the earlier the better because the tide is smooth.
• Tall 12 year olds and up will get a turn in the row boats. - The long oars can be a problem for our younger childen.
• 12 year olds and below will get to use the training equipment and the flume inside the club rooms (which is still a fun activity).
• Bring your own smoko plus a something for the volunteer help such as the cox and crew (we will all contribute towards this).

Contact Nicola ASAP to register your interest, as the coordinators need an early indication of numbers
