The Regatta was a great escape from Covid and the weather gods were cooperative. The work that went into the permits was extraordinary, Thank you, Mark Madigan.
Gail and Bob gave us a race committee.
Bill Daniel put together a flag stand that the park would accept.
Joe Duri supplied a motor for the Club boat.
David Gray supplied trophies for the winners.
The pot luck was delicious, the two bonfires were enjoyed and as usual fun was had all around.
