Picnic and Regatta -Saturday, August 5

Bill Bialkowski

Our Picnic and Regatta on August 5 was a great success. The weather was perfect, and Fitzgerald Bay Beach was perfect too. About forty people came and were fed hotdogs and sausages cooked by David Tool, with drinks dispensed by Murray Hogeboom. Not enough boats came to allow much of a regatta, but as always Adrian Crowe organized swimming races and beach games which kept everyone laughing. The kids swam a race out to the red float, while the adults swam a race all the way to the swimming platform.  The highlight of the afternoon was a game of ‘water balloon’, where participants throw a water billed balloon to each other, at ever increasing distance. When the balloon breaks it is over.

Here are some photos:
