Logs in the Lake

Oct 13, 10:26 AM

Dear Rowers (and other lake users),
As of this morning (Saturday 13 October) West Basin and part of central Basin have large numbers of logs that have been flushed into the lake following the recent rain. For fragile boats, like most rowing shells, this effectively closes these parts of the lake. The NCA has responded to the crisis and their contractor will start clearing the logs this afternoon.

We understand that the NCA will remove the logs from west to east stopping the front of flotsam from moving further west. As of this morning the front had reached the […]

Call for new volunteer Boat Race Officials – We Need You

Rowing ACT relies on a group of volunteer boat race officials (BROs) to ensure the safety of competitors, to maintain the fairness of racing, and to manage the smooth running of regattas for the enjoyment of the wider rowing community. It is important for the ACT rowing community to maintain a healthy number of trained BROs so that regattas can be safely conducted throughout the summer seasons, and also to lessen the burden on individual BROs. If we do not maintain a healthy number of BROs, then it is possible that regattas could be scaled back or cancelled should there […]
