Club Newsletter December 2021

Join other members and families at the Hawthorn Clubhouse next Sunday morning December 12th for our Xmas Row HO HO. We’d like to see members and their training buddies empty out the boathouse getting the full fleet out on the water.

Be at HRC Clubhouse 9.45 am on Sunday 12th (on the water by 10.00am), for the club Xmas row to Dolly and back followed by drinks and nibbles in the clubhouse forecourt. Bar open 11.00am with drinks at bar prices. A share plate of Xmas fare would be appreciated from those attending. Partners and families are welcome.

What to Wear? Club colours with a touch of xmas to add a bit of xmas glam.

Use the link below to book your Xmas row and note if you need to be placed in a crew. Captain would also like to get an eight on the water with the jolly man in the red suit in the drivers seat. If you’d like a spot in the eight note your side preference in the booking.

Victorian 8s Challenge

Dear HOTY Committee, HRC Volunteers and HRC membership thank you for putting on such a wonderful event .

I had such a great time, the atmosphere down at the city boat sheds was full of anticipation and excitement. So many of the crews expressed their gratefulness to HRC for managing to host an 8’s Regatta in these difficult time’s.

Well done everyone.

Regards Janet Conos

HRC President
