Preparations are well and truly underway for The Bennett Shield Regatta. Great work by all the volunteers to set the lanes and repair the pontoons. Thank you to everyone who will be giving up their time on Saturday to make this another great Bennett Shield Regatta.

There will be tasty food options all day. Coffee (of course!), the BBQ and delicious baking.

Also, check out the Silent Auction. Like last year some excellent items have been generously donated. An AUT Millennium Gym membership, Books, Bathroom Scales, Hair Dryers and Straighteners, a waffle maker, beauty products, sports equipment etc etc. The list goes on....
