NEWCASTLE REGATTA, 17 JANUARY 2004
3 Cheers for Newcastle Hunter Dragon Boat Club, especially Lynn Flannagan,
President, and Mel Cantwell (DBNSW President) for putting on the best
Regatta this season!!!
Wow - what a day - it started off wet and gloomy but the sun came out
for a fantastic day!!! Thanks to everyone for making the event so special:
45 Dragons Abreast gals from Newcastle, Central Coast, Sydney, and even
Armidale and Canberra!!! Our fantastic supporters and partners really
made the day as we now set up ourselves so professionally with tents etc!!!
The raffle donated by Penny Dudding of "You Really Are Beautiful"
in Adamstown went off like a cracker and was won by our terrriffic supporter,
Rosemary Riley!!! We raised heaps of $ selling jewellery, so thanks to
the craft fundraIsing group!!!
Our next great adventure is Chinese New Year in Darling Harbour, Sydney:
Sunday Feb 8 2004.
See you on the water with your paddles wet: wear your pink every Sunday
