The Captain spoke at length of the great work of John for the Club and John responded with a heartfelt thank you for the great times he enjoyed at the Club and the part it played in his youth. His wife named the boat with great gusto as the following photo attests. Above: Donna Harry masterfully dispatching the wine over the boat We were blessed with the attendance of most of our athletes heading off to the trials in the afternoon. Many of them received awards with Kat Werry and Liam Donald winning the oarswoman and oarsman of the year awards. Above: Kat receiving her award from Josh Dunkley-Smith Above: Liam Donald with his award. A secret was held very tightly by the Committee, namely the election of Jenny Fraumano to Life Membership. The election was passed by enthusiastic acclamation. Jenny’s work for the Club as Saturday morning breakfast co-ordinator, Club Secretary and team manager has been superb and this recognition well deserved. This surprise brought an amusing change of expression on Jenny’s face. Her well planned meeting went off script which brought concern. This was quickly changed to pleasant surprise – see below. Above: Concern when the meeting went off script Above: Then delight and surprise when it was announced The full list of award winners and the new committee will follow shortly Thursday nights buzz with Masters Published 21st October 2017 It must be head racing season as Thursday nights are a buzzing with masters rowers. This Thursday three eights and a four went out for a row before adjourning to the bar. The rumour has it that once the Edgar is fixed, all four masters eights will be hitting the water. It will be hard to get a beer at the bar! More news from our overseas members Published 21st October 2017 In response to members to get their one piece rowing suits in before the head season, Leah Duret from France responded with the picture below and caption. Léa Duret Speaking about zootie… I take good care of this one in the northern hemisphere ?. Miss you guys, Yeah Mercs!! Also responding was Paddy Boomer from Ireland. Paddy is joining us to train down under from 4th November. Above: Paddy in the stroke seat of the Irish pair at the recent World Championships James Shipton to return to Melbourne (and Mercs) Published 18th October 2017 The federal government announced this week that James Shipton will be the incoming chair of the Australian Securities and Investment Commission replacing Greg Medcalf. James was a rower back in the late 1980s winning his fair share of races. He has already indicated his intention of joining the masters group in the New Year. Your correspondent has already suggested to him the need for a work life balance regulation to enable him to get away to row every Thursday night. On a serious note, congratulations James on your appointment and welcome back to Australia. Above: James in the bow seat after winning a Victorian Championship at Ballarat in 1989 Annual Report now available Published 17th October 2017 The annual report is now available on the documents page or through the following link Mercantile Annual Report 2016-17. AGM this weekend Published 15th October 2017 2017 Mercantile Lunch and AGM Sunday 22 October Join us for lunch and boat christening prior to the AGM which commences at 2pm Mercantile Rowing Club Boathouse 5 Boathouse Drive Melbourne, Vic 3004 12 noon – Pre-lunch Drinks and Boat Christening 1 pm – Lunch 2pm – AGM Lunch $35.00 Athletes $25.00 Drinks at Bar Prices Book www.trybooking com https://www.trybooking.com/book/event?eid=322823 Further Details: Jenny Fraumano [email protected] 0438324307 Rowing Victoria Awards Published 13th October 2017 Mercantile again won the senior premiership last season and Club Captain Bill Webster was presented with the certificate. Go Mercs. David “Chipper” Colvin was awarded the prestigious William Waterfield Award for outstanding service to Victorian Rowing. David was recognised for a lifetime of service to the sport and he continues to coach and mentor the next generation of Victorian rowers. His contribution to Mercantile is without peer. He has also been a member of a record number of Victorian teams, a record that will never be surpassed. Above: Chipper receives his award from Rowing Victoria President, and Club Member, Pat McNamara. Other Mercantile awardees included Victorian coach of the year, which was won by two people, one of whom was Tom Abramowski. A 40 year umpire service award was given to Andrew Guerin. Bits and pieces – again Published 13th October 2017 The first bits and pieces article created a barrage of comment from both here and overseas. John Leeming’s perspective on the World Championships results raised amusement in New Zealand where one commentator noted: Is there no end to Australia’s seemingly insatiable appetite to reflect in NZ glory? This commentator did also congratulate Australia on finishing second on the Olympic events medal table, behind New Zealand! However, most comment from here and overseas came from David Pincus shouting beers after his beloved Tigers won the Grand Final. Calls were made for the article to be withdrawn as it must have been “fake news” and the image clearly Photo-shopped. Your correspondent stands by his story and photo. ********************************************************************************** World Championship silver medal winning cox James Rook returned to the Club on Thursday night and willingly and gladly coxed a masters eight. He enjoyed being back at the Club and on the Yarra. Well done James and thank you for your help. Above: James Rook receiving his World Cup silver medal for the eight from FISA President Jean- Christophe Rolland at Lucerne this year ********************************************************************************** Also on Thursday night, the masters celebrated Meghan Hester’s birthday at the Club.
