2021 Hickson Regatta

What fun!  The weather, the scouts, the sea, it all played out in a fantastically fun regatta.  Our scouts excelled themselves, playing the part of Venturers and Open teams as well as sailing in all their own classes.  The leaders got to have a couple of goes too, with Grant and Derrick getting a fourth and Cath and Kym doing well too.

2020 Prize Giving

Well, prize giving was a hoot!  With two scouts and four venturers in attendance, they only just out numbered the five leaders who were there as well.

We did reasonably well overall, getting a large number of second places overall with a fair number of firsts thrown in.  One highlight of the night, was that Xavier, who actually won the Onepoto Rowing got to collect the Kurt Hansen Plate, the first time this trophy has been awarded.

One omission which was pointed out after the prize giving was that the results from the Worser Bay regatta were not included in these proceedings, but we all know what they were. (If you don't have a look at the write up here.)

Below is the collection of trophies and certificates.

From the pictures above, the highlights for me are the fact that 
  • we brought home five trophies, more than we have in the last two years (three in 2018 and none last year)
  • two of the trophies we won were for the Onepoto Regatta, our own.
  • our intermediates pulled off a win overall for the season in their sunburst racing
  • we were recognised as the biggest improvers last year
I personally am very pleased with the results and hopefully we will all celebrate our success.

Thursday and the weekend

Guys
Remember this Thursday night is rowing and iron-man so you need to come with shoes that can be used for running as well as your normal rowing gear. We will not be sailing.

We will also be doing relays so better start practicing.

Also I need to know your availability for Saturday (sailing regatta) and Sunday’s full Scout regatta. Need you to tell me at the start of Scouts so that we can do the planning, and also if your parents are available to support with tow bars and seats for trips to Evans Bay.

Remember, if you can’t confirm attendance Thursday night, then we cannot take you.

Cheers Roger
