Carolyn at the 2009 Henleys

Carolyn is competing at the 127th Henley in St. Catherines this week. Although the competition is held dirung the whole August 3-9 week, Carolyn's races will be held August from Thursday 6 to Saturday August 8. Carolyn is in the U17 Women Cox 4+ race and there is no weight limit. Carolyn's boat is made up of 2 Flyweights, 1 Lightweight and a single true Heavyweight and will therefore be at a disadvantage against boats that will have more heavyweights.

At the recent Ontario Rowing Championships on July 25 in Welland, Carolyn's Leander Womens Fours won Bronze in the Womens Junior Fours. Having to compete in the Open Heavyweight Division, the girls did very well to place third against boats with all or more heavyweights.

Nick's and Matt's Grad

It's been a while since my last post. No real good reason for the absence but we'll try to change that.

Nick graduated on June 19 from Grade 8. I can't believe he's going to high school. Paddy now will be the last remaining at Canadian Martyrs. More pics
