Our annual general meeting was held on Oct. 19, 2023 at the Old Mill Boathouse to discuss our successes and the way forward, and to vote for our new executive. We had an excellent turnout this year.
We said thank you to our longstanding team president, Brian Kenny who has stepped down from the role. Appreciation goes out to teammates who participated and organized a gratitude gift for him including a painting by a BC artist of our boats on the water during Inlet Spring Regatta, a dragon boat patterned cooking apron, a wooden paddle with team signatures and logos, and a fine bottle of scotch!
