The 'Round the Island' Head

The Round the Island Head is an annual event that no member should miss......a great finish to the season. This year's autumn event is to be held on Sunday 24th Sept, at the Oratory Boathouse, from 10am-2pm.

This is a 'scratch' event - all crews are drawn out of the hat on the day - so there's no need to find a crew.....just turn up a row! The boats used are the stable fours used at the regatta.

The race is a timed event, the start and finish are at the boathouse - all you need to do is row to the island, turn, and row back. The best crews manage this in around 10 minutes.

There's even a prize for the winning crew....

What better way to meet all your friends at the boat club, dust off your rowing skills, and enjoy the river?

Don't forget to bring some lunch.....we'll have a barbeque ready......
