Port Adelaide Rowing Club

This is the PARC work bench. Captain’s corner. Intimidating space to be sent to find a spare part for some. Home for others.

The new vice captain has had a clean up. Nothing thrown out, just ordered a little more neatly. The screw driver breeding in hibernation program has now come to an end. 😁

This is Frank. He comes dressed for all seasons. Rather than wearing the seasons layered on, he opts for the top to toe seasonal ombré look. 😁

After the row he helps out with lawn mowing with a change of leg wear and footwear.

Port Adelaide Rowing Club joins with rowers across the world, saddened to hear of the sudden passing of Norwegian Olympian Olaf Tufte. The friendly rivalry with New Zealander Mahé Drysdale made for some entertaining racing showcasing and pushing elite rowing to new boundaries.

20kms Around the Bar, we are all happy to have finished!

20k erg relay, seeing the weather got in the way of going around the island

Congratulations to our very own Kati Ritchie on being named Rowing SA's Volunteer of the Year. This award recognises a volunteer who has made a significant contribution to the success of Rowing SA events, going above and beyond the call of duty. Thanks Kati for all your tireless umpiring; from PARC's experience, your smiley face and clear instructions on the water at regattas has helped keep crews calm.

Rowing South Australia

Thanks to all who joined us for our Annual Dinner at Sweet Amber in Semaphore.

Much thanks and appreciation was given especially to Coach Ryan as he prepares to move overseas, and to President Jeremy who has moved to Melbourne. Two club awards were announced last night. (The rest will be presented at the AGM on Sunday 19th July - members check your email for details).

A great evening had by all.

The Accolade was a regular sight from our boathouse for so many years

A Saturday of crews and coaching.

Followed by scrumptious brunch, celebratory drinks and good cheer.

Thanks to our wonderful volunteer organisers, drivers, cooks, bottle washers.
