Tuggeranong Festival Cup Rowing Regatta – 22 November 2014
Lake Tuggeranong Rowing Club hosted the third annual staging of the Tuggeranong Festival Cup Regatta in the best conditions we have seen so far for this event. Twenty three quad sculls competed this year over the 750m course in various categories. Each category winner then competed in a handicapped grand finale to determine the winner of The Cup.
Cup winners for 2014 were the women’s quad entry from Canberra Rowing Club (Carla Borg, Sorelle Bowman, Sara Zanetti and Louise Parry). Other category winners were:
Mens – Nick Latimer, John Southwell, Jeff Hart & Tom Trobe from Canberra Rowing Club.
Schoolboys – Henry Bowyer, Alex Grzeskowiak, Byron Hewson, Geordie Carscadden and Yolanda Patterson (cox) from Capital Lakes Rowing Club.
Schoolgirls – Eliza Burton, Emma Stanton, Tiffany McCormack, Rebecca Hyslop and Lucy Egan-Richards (cox) from Capital Lakes Rowing Club.
Mixed crew – Judith Abercromby, Kathy Howard, Leigh Gordon and Geoff Ellacott from Black Mountain Rowing Club.
Almost Champions were the Harris, Wyles, Caroll, Cardone, Thomas, Hart crew from Marist College Rowing Club.
This event highlighted to all our visiting rowers how picturesque Lake Tuggeranong is with all clubs looking forward to participating in this event again next year. Congratulations to all our winners and thank you to all the officials and volunteers who assisted in the running of this regatta.
