A huge shout out to Ohinewai School for generously donating two trays of water to Manawa Dragons.

Your support is so appreciated. It will keep our paddlers hydrated and ready to give it their all on and off the water. Community support like this means a lot to us!

Thank you for your kindness and generosity — we truly appreciate it 💙💚

Stamina isn’t found in comfort zones — it’s built by showing up, digging deep, train by train.
Let’s go Manawa Dragons 💙💚

Great strokes don’t just set the pace, they lead with timing, rhythm and trust 💙💚 Manawa Dragons thank you Wayno Morris for the videos 👍

Why does training day take so long to come around… then disappear way too fast?
Being on the water is one of the best parts of the week for Manawa Dragons 💙💚

We celebrated Lu and Trish’s birthdays today with some yummy sweet treats 🎂🎂

After our train, it was the perfect way to finish with plenty of laughs, great company, and a little sweetness shared. 💙💚

A THANK YOU message from Trish Fenton to our lovely community ❤️

I’m honestly overwhelmed by the love and support I’ve received. Thank you to every single person who read, shared, donated, or simply stood beside me through this journey. Big or small, every act of kindness meant the world.

A special thank you to Tessa Coombs for starting the Givealittle page, and to Michele Cranefield, SandiiLance OBrien, Sueze Morris, and my whole Manawa Dragons whānau. You’ve reminded me that this club is more than just a team — it’s family. We lift each other up, support each other through the hard moments, and celebrate together.

To my boys — thank you for being my rock through all of this. From losing my car, to the write-off, to finally having my independence back again, you carried me through the hardest days. Thank you for the rides to work, for lending me your cars, for the fuel, the encouragement, the positivity, and for constantly reminding me, “Mum, it’s going to be okay.” Your love and support kept me smiling and gave me the strength to keep going.

Because of all of you, I’ve got my freedom, independence, and happiness back. After some really hard months, I finally feel like I’m living again. My car is my hope, my freedom, and the pot of gold at the end of a very long tunnel.

I’m beyond grateful, overwhelmed, and so excited for what’s ahead. From the bottom of my heart — thank you everyone. Trish xx 💙💚

We are over the moon. She is a beauty Trish 🤍🤍🤍

Today our coach / sweep did a thing… and kept it super quiet 🤫💙💚

A massive congratulations to Michele Cranefield on graduating and wow, the Manawa Dragons whānau and friends are so proud of you!

You lead with heart, dedication, calm strength, and endless support, so seeing you achieve this milestone feels pretty special for all of us too.

Not gonna lie… we’re slightly impressed you managed to keep it under wraps for this long 😂

Your hard work, commitment, and determination never goes unnoticed. We are cheering loudly for you today and celebrating everything you have achieved.

Your Manawa Dragons whānau are SO proud of you Michele 💙💚🐉
