Well done Broadwater !!!!!!!!
We ran it, and we WON it all !!!!!!!!
We had 2 boats- the Masters "Barbarians" and the Prems and Masters combined "Broadwater Babies", and we showed off our new rescue boat.
The Barbarians (with a crew of 18)- led by PT and swept by Dion- took out 1st place from a field of 13 boats, winning for our Club an awesome trophy. The Babies had a crew of 16 (due to the flu hitting a lot of our paddlers), and finished a very respectable 8th.
Many commented that the 7.5 kms wasn’t as hard as they thought it would be- maybe they just weren’t putting in enough (ha!ha!)
The Dash for Cash over 300m, with a 180 degree turn at the 150m mark, made for spectacular racing, and great viewing. Broadwater Barbarians won first place and $600, and the Babies came 3rd, winning $100. True to the spirit of the day, Paul donated our winnings back to the Cancer Council.
As you can all see from my previous email, it was a huge day, with Presentations at 1-30 p.m.
Today was all about having fun, mixing with other Clubs, and supporting a worthwhile charity. Winning was a huge bonus.
We looked good, we did good, and we were seen by many.
