A HUGE THANK YOU
To all the paddlers, friends, and partners and children who have helped Broadwater with their fundraising efforts in the past few months.
By volunteering our time -The Supersprint Triathlon raised $675, and the two Bunnings Sausage Sizzles raised $2200- for our Club.
A huge effort, Thank you and well done to all who assisted.
Our next Bunnings Sausage Sizzle is in August, at Nerang.
PRESENTATION NIGHT
A great night out at the Royal Pines Resort saw all the guys and gals dressed in their splendor, to celebrate the end of the 07-08 season.
Congratulations to Phil King for being awarded the “Club Person of the Year”, for his never ending assistance with the boats, trailers, sweeping, fund raising, and for being just a really great Club person. Jono and Dion were each awarded the Coaches Trophy, for their outstanding achievements at State, National and World levels in the 07-08 season.
COMING EVENTS-
“ON Q” CORPORATE COME & TRY SOCIAL DAY- SUNDAY 29TH JUNE
Cheryl and her workmates at ON Q are having a regional social get together at Emerald Lakes on Sunday 29th June, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. using our dragon boats for a fun, team building day of social competition. Approx 40 to 60 are expected to attend. We need 4 of our paddlers to assist on the day, with Paul, Phil and Karen sweeping. Please let Karen know if you can assist. (0407 445 774).
TIN CAN BAY WEEKEND – Sat/Sun-19th/20th July-
“The Sleepy Lagoon Hotel Regatta” will be raced on Sunday 20th July- 8 a.m. to 3 p.m.
Travel time to Tin Can Bay- 3 ½ hours.
Accommodation is booked at the Sleepy Lagoon Cabins (same as previous years), @ $30 per head, for both Friday & Saturday nights. Race entry fee is $10 per person for the day’s racing.
This is a fantastic weekend where all clubs get to socialize, party, have a great night out, then compete on the Sunday in a friendly regatta over 200m racing.
Please email Karen or text on 0407 445 774 or see her at training THIS WEEK if you are going as numbers must be finalized by this weekend for rooms, team entry, etc. Also add on any family members, friends, etc who will be keen to tag along. Car pooling will be arranged to keep travel costs down.
The team travelling to Penang will not be going to Tin Can Bay this year, as some of these paddlers cannot afford to go, others are spending their weekend at home with their family before departing, and the team needs to have a full on training session 2 weeks out from the Club Crew World Championships.
CLUB CREW WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS- PENANG
1st, 2nd & 3rd August
Broadwater Dragons qualified for this Championship by being placed 3rd in Australia at the Nationals in April in Perth, 08. Twenty five paddlers and two supporters are travelling to Penang to compete, leaving on Saturday 26th July, returning 5th August.
The Club wishes all good luck, “Paddle with Heart”, make Broadwater proud.
NEW EQUIPMENT PURCHASED
A 3rd Champion Boat, with delivery in 2 to 3 months time, has been ordered. A double decker 2 boat trailer has also been approved, with John and Beau looking into the costings, quotes, etc.
An Equipment Storage Trailer for all the Club’s equipment-tents, heads, tails, drums, paddles has been approved for purchase, using the Gold Coast City Council Equipment Grant of $3,500 approved to the Club in May. This will make it much easier for storing and transporting our Club’s equipment, as everything will always be in this one trailer.
NEW RACE UNIFORMS
After almost 7 years of wearing our race singlet in its current design, the committee has decided on a change. New sun smart t-shirt style race shirts have been designed and ordered for the start of the 08-09 season. Cost will be approx $47 each, and all paddlers will be required to purchase their own race shirt prior to Tewaka’s regatta in August. New dress shirts are also being made (cost approx $30). Sports bags (orange and blue) can also be purchased, with our dragon logo-$35 each.
CORPORATE REGATTA- OCTOBER 5TH –SUNDAY- AT PARADISE POINT.
Please keep this day available, as all Club Members will be needed to make this a fantastic, well run, and successful event.
TRAINING
Training will continue all through the winter, as Broadwater is planning, recruiting, and aiming for the AusDBF National Championships being held in Caloundra next April, 2009.
On water- Tuesdays & Thursdays- at 5-30p.m. (Be there by 5-15 p.m. for warm up)
