TwRC@St Margarets Fair
4th July 2010
Twickenham Rowing Club will once again have a stand at the St Margarets Fair on Moormead Park, Saturday 10 July. This local fair draws in a large crowd of Twickenham folk of all ages so is a great opportunity for us to promote the club to the local community.
We’ll be running an ergo competition as well as offering coaching in rowing technique on the ergo. We’ll also be celebrating 150 years of rowing at the club with a display of interesting artefacts drawn from the club’s archive backed up with some 150th merchandise to sell. The local radio team are keen to interview members young and old.
So, I need your help! Please can you spare an hour or two this Saturday to load ergos; man the stand; or talk enthusiastically about the club to the local radio man?
The timetable below shows when and where you can help. Please email me if you can help stating when you are free and what you can help with.
Thanks very much.
