 Many thanks for the awesome response by club members to turn out and deliver the Yellow pages book this year.
Anyone hoping that Saturday would also turn out fine like the day before were sorely disappointed as the clouds rolled in and the wet stuff arrived. It didn’t matter, with the great delivery results achieved on Friday we were out to break the record and get home early, if a bit wet. Our 11500 books were delivered by 1130 am on Saturday – an all comers record. Awesome! It was great to see the team work created and the stick-ability of our clubbies shone throughout the day. Once again, many thanks for all your help with the deliveries, (some folk turning out on both days...). The funds will greatly assist with the growth of our club and will be allotted to another new project, which will be announced later in the year. Cheers from the TMOCC Yellow pages subcommittee.

Nga mihi Rebecca Ryder Secretary on behalf of the Tauranga Moana Outrigger Canoe Club Committee. -- Tauranga Moana Outrigger Canoe Club http://www.tmocc.co.nz Thanks to those members who are vigilant in reporting repairs required to the waka. We have spent quite a bit of time since March 2020 repairing old and recent wear and tear to the waka. We currently have 2 waka out of action until the repairs are complete:
We have put carpet strips down at the shed for placing between stacking canoes to protect ama and kiato. Please make sure you use them when stowing the waka. The cleaning down has been awesome with 99% of the members soap washing our equipment and using salt away on our singles and doubles metal fastenings etc. Awesome work. This will minimise our replacement cycle and reduce risk of equipment failure on the water. Three teams completed the final Hauraki Summer Series on Saturday 10th of April 2021.
Our Novice crew mixed across our open team due to challenging conditions and took out 1st and 2nd place in the 8km races. Of the five W6 crews that started TMOCC were the only ones to finish. Our Salt and Pepper crew had a great race and came in 2nd in the 15km (reduced to 11km) and the Swell Chasers (already knackered from the Novice Race) managed to come in a tidy 3rd Place in the Open Mixed race. Darryl Hyne took out 1st Place in the Senior Master Mens W1 8km race. Well done, smashing it out there. Well done to all who participated and thanks to Mark Sutherland for towing the waka to the race, and for offering his house for refuge afterwards! |
