Season Review and Generel Notices

Athlunkard Boat Club has had a great season overall. Throughout the season a number of medals were won at River, Cork Regatta, Dublin Metropolitan Regatta, Fermoy Regatta, Lee Regatta, Castleconnell Regatta and Limerick Regatta by Junior 16/18 Men/Womens Sculls and Doubles. The regattas really showed everyone where they stood amongst other crews and what they need to do for the next season.

There were a total of 10 wins and everybody was pleased withe the regattas overall. Next year hopefully there will be a lot more wins! The club has recruited new members over the season and has managed to put a J16 Womens Quad a J14 & J15 Mens Quad and a Mens Novice Four.

Athlunkard have had some fundraising events throughout the year through bag packing, sponsored runs and raffles. This has brought in money to fund for regattas and other amenities.

The Christmas Raffle will take place next week and we would be grateful if you would buy a ticket or even sell a book. Contact Billy Meehan for more info @ 0872028750

Photos are up from the Regattas and we hope to take a lot more next year!
