The draw and programme for this Saturday’s regatta have been published.
Notes:

• 1000m events are now at 4 minute intervals
• There is a 1 minute interval from a race starting at the 1000m and the next
  starting from 1500/1000m
• We are using of 7 lanes from 1500m for the last division of the WGC 1X
  enabling a reduction of one race on the programme.
• The ACT Roads Dept recently erected “No Parking” signs on the
  South side of Lady Denman Drive, this was presented as a safety measure. 
  The no parking provisions are policed and fines apply.  Abundant alternative
  shaded parking is available at the Acacia Inlet picnic area which is on the
  Southern (Woden) side of the regatta parking area 400m further along Lady Denman
  Drive (after unloading) and on Black Mountain Peninsular. 
• The NCA has advised that there is a triathlon on Black Mountain Peninsula,
  but Triathlon ACT does not mention it on its web site. Take care.

The results of yesterday’s regatta have been published here.

The ACTRA AGM was held last night and a new board elected. The new president, David Bagnall said:
“Brendon Prout is to be commended on his nine years as president of ACTRA. This
period has seen major changes in the administration of the sport in the ACT
including significant changes to the constitution and creation of the Executive
Officer position. Brendon’s contribution is therefore very significant and on
behalf of all of us l thank him for his extensive efforts.

I would also like to thank Suzie Nermutova and Rick Worboys for their efforts on
the Executive over the last 12 months. Both contributed constructively to the
administration of the sport locally.”
