Rowing News:
As mentioned last week, the SMRC Head of the River is moving into the city for this year only, due to forecasted flooding in O’Briensbridge. Steamboat Quay offers a great vantage point for spectators and we look forward to making a great event which will be the first in the city for many years. Please do not congregate on the bridge.
Saturday Feb 24th is the date (unchanged) and full details are being finalised right now.
Cobblestone Joe's are hosting an early gig by ex member Brian O'Connor for us in the evening, where the best pizza in Ireland is also on the menu, to get us all warmed up after a day on the water. Brian is flying in from Sweden for this event and we'd like to thank him for getting on board. Open to all - tell everyone!
