Rowing Regatta, Back Beach Dun Laoghaire, Sept 2016
Group News
Despite the persistent rain and mist, all four sections of the Group enjoyed participating in the Rowing Regatta hosted by 8ú Calafort Gasóga Mara as part of our Ceiliúradh Caoga Bliain. The many afternoons and evenings spent practicing paid off with fantastic success by many teams, especially the strong performance and great win in the Woodlatimer Trophy, Skiff u17.
Many thanks to Ciarán and the leader team for running the regatta, the Parents and Friends Committee for the great den clean up w/e and hospitality, and to Dun Laoghaire Rathdown County Council for granting permission to use the back beach area which seemed to work really well for the event.
