Mike Olizar and Eric recounted memories of Arthur Goffrey, a legendary handicapper in the club who always dressed smartly and ensured the races began at 0730 sharp.  He also oversaw the Wednesday morning races which are no longer part of the club's fixtures.  

Two swan families and one Serps family had their young out enjoying the 74F water.  

Tony Cuthbert reminded everyone that it will be a 0730 start on 10 July for the Bridge To Bridge race and that the start will be on the Posh Cafe side this year due to the placement of the reed beds on the "usual side".
