Enthusiastic club members of all ages took part in a rowing relay on Saturday 15th January, rowing non-stop for 12 hours from 8.00am to 8.00pm. The event took place beside North Berwick High Street in the grounds of St Andrew Blackadder Church and attracted a lot of attention from passers by, some of whom were keen to try out on a rowing machine.
Each rower completed a one hour slot with some very keen folk doing 2 hours! Everyone who took part, either on the machines or in a supporting role, had an amazing day and their were a lot of smiling, if not tired, faces.
The very good news is that we were able to raise £1,000 for Reverse Rett and raise awareness of Rett Syndrome. We were very happy to add this to Five in a Row’s just giving page to help them take their total fundraising over £46,000.
