TO ALL CLUBS AND LEGION MEMBERS

Cancellation of April Legion Masters Regatta

The Legion of Rowers Committee wish to advise that, in the best interests of the health and safety of both athletes and officials, as well as coaches and spectators, we have reluctantly agreed to cancel our Masters Regatta, scheduled for Lake Karapiro, on Sunday 26^th April.

Whereas our proposed regatta may have managed to stay under the New Zealand Government’s cut-off point of under 500 for massed gatherings during this uncertain period of Corona Virus outbreaks, we felt it best to avoid any possibility of spreading the infection any further.

Our Committee would like to sincerely thank all clubs who were planning to attend, and who have supported our April Masters regatta in the past. Although this regatta will not happen, we would like to remind you all of the two forthcoming Masters Regattas

Legion North Island Championship Regatta, Saturday 29^th August 2020 and
NZ Masters Championships Regatta Sat/Sun 12^th & 13^th September 2020
