SLS Alumni Rowers:
As part of the Rowing Festival, Shawnigan will host the 3rd Annual Shawnigan / Brentwood Duel. We will race our rivals in a boys 8+, girls 8+ and an alumni 8+. We also invite any crew from any year to get a boat together for a ceremonial row-by. We will need to confirm how many boats are needed, so please contact Tim Coy (tcoy@shawnigan.ca) if you are interested in participating.
