In response to a query, we have decided the following. The restrictions this coming weekend will be the same as for other Winter League weekends earlier in term: the river will be open all day Saturday AND Sunday after 3pm (but no rowing through the Winter League before that time). If you arrange outings for early Saturday morning then PLEASE be very quiet before 7.30 (people living near the river like to get some sleep!) and preferably avoid 8-9am when lots of town crews will be on the water.

Laurie was a central character in the Cambridge rowing scene over many decades, and will be missed by both the town and University rowing community. Pete Laurie Hallifax It is with great sadness that I advise you that Laurie Hallifax died last Saturday 7th March 2009. He had battled with cancer for a long time but to Laurie this was a mere inconvenience to his rowing activities that took priority over his illness. He regularly took part in rowing events and recently had considerable success at the World Masters Regatta in Lithuania winning in an over 80 (octogenarian) 8 which beat the Japanese and his quad also won. He came second in the single sculls. He had been "patched up" from time to time over many years for various forms of cancer but unfortunately his long battle came to an end on Saturday although up to a week ago he had been discussing with builders the work he needed doing on his house. Laurie was a past President of the City of Cambridge Rowing Club and Vice President of the CRA. He was a Trustee of the Cambridge Sport Lakes Trust and was very enthusiastic about the course and also the use of Milton Country Park for bringing on Scullers. He was a much respected coach and worked with the Cambridge University Lightweight Crew for many years. He was a remarkable man, always very positive and an inspiration to to all who knew him.

However, this relaxation of Sunday restrictions does not apply to "training camps", as per our agreement with the CRA; in other words, multiple outings should not be planned for Sundays over the vacation, up to and including Sunday 19th April. We would consider a couple of eights outings at different times of the day, or a small number of scullers/small boats (again, generally spread across the day) to be acceptable in this regard. It would be appreciated if you could avoid Sunday mornings as there may be many town crews and novice scullers on the water at that time. Please do get in touch if you have any questions.

If you are boating just before or just after these times, please take care as there will be numerous young scullers on the water.

The event was very popular with both clubs and colleges last year, and so there will be three divisions, at 10:30, 11:45 and 13:00. The racing will be followed by a barbecue at Cambridge City Rowing Club and there's even a free pint for each competitor as well! Full details of the race are available from our site: http://www.radbc.co.uk/radmile/index.php And the entry form can be downloaded from: http://www.radbc.co.uk/images/entryform.pdf We hope to see you on the day.

Workboats will be employed to move this derelict vessel to the Conservators? Depot at Clayhithe near Waterbeach. Please keep a lookout for the workboats and give way to them when they are underway. The convoy will be slow-moving and is likely to occupy the middle of the navigation channel, with limited ability to manoeuvre. It is expected that these operations will take place between 9am and 5pm on either of these days. ? For further information, please telephone 01223 863785 (office hours, Mondays to Fridays 9am to 5pm) or 07802 862711 (River Foreman, out of hours). ? Thank you for your attention. ? Pip Noon ? ?
