Dover Regatta 8th June 2019

After consulting our safety boat operators who have been following this storm from Spain,
It looks like this will be sitting above Dover from 1000 till 1600 at least and based on that forecast we regret to say Dover regatta will be off tomorrow

Will will confirm a new date ASAP.

 

Lest we Forget

Thank you to Kevin (Curly) Goodwin, Vice President of the club, for laying our wreath at today’s Remembrance Day Service and Parade on behalf of Dover Rowing Club.
