Christening of new rowing boats, 2011

DESCRIPTION

DescriptionLeft to right: Andrew Clark and daughter, Ian Woolf, Ian Hughes and Philip Grutzner at the christening of new rowing boats.

On 13 February, over 180 Carey rowers, 45 coaches and a large crowd of parents and friends gathered at the Carey boatsheds on the Yarra to celebrate the christening of three new rowing boats.

The new First Year 9 girls four was named Ian Woolf in honour of the retiring Chairman of the School Board, Dr Ian Woolf. The new Second Year 9 girls four was named Ian Hughes in honour of Secretary of the School Board Ian Hughes. The Third Year 9 girls four was named the Jane Clark in honour of much loved, dedicated former Carey parent and keen supporter of numerous co-curricular activities, Jane Clark, who passed away in 2008.

The event was a great opportunity to recognise the significant contributions that Ian, Jane and Ian have made to the Carey community.

Each of Carey's crews were also introduced to the crowd in a row past and the day ended with a hotly-contested race in which a Coaches eight including Yasmin Grutzner and Pam Westendorf defeated a young 'Rookie Coaches' four, a parents eight that started rowing last year and a crew of former Carey students from the 1970s.Date13th February 2011Year2011CreatorCarey Baptist Grammar SchoolCategorySports | RowingCelebrations & Events
