On Sunday morning our Executive Officer Simon Tulloh resigned.
On behalf of the Association I would like to thank Simon for his hard work both as

Simon has worked at accommodating the diverse interests that exist in ACT clubs,
and working to help grow the sport.
We wish him well and look forward to his continuing involvement with rowing through

Simon has assured me that he will aid us in a smooth handover and transition.
Within the next few days the ACTRA executive will start the process of finding a
replacement for Simon.
