The Rotary River Rats were proud to be contenders once again in the 2010 Dragon Boat race for the Still Me Cancer Program.

Members of the team were intense rowers: Istvan Kinizsi, Angie Bujold, Bob Stevens, Kathy Rothisberger, Mary Ann Legros, Anna Traini, Mark Vares, Robert Shorrock who replaced Andi Kidd, Fred Plomp and  Mardi Plomp. Our most capable steersman was Shaun Kurz and our super drummer was Janet Pilozow.

Much Thanks to Claire Thompson and Joanne Misner who substitued for 2 of the rowers when they could not attend a  practice.

On July 1st in the first heat of the race --our team came in second behind the group that went on to win the race overall-- the Ski Patrol. When the race was over, our Rotary group placed sixth . We were all happy River Rats .

We had fun and great

camaraderie along with a reasonable result.  Here's to the future!
