As each year the club has expenses such as rates, mortgage repayments and interest, insurance, repairs and maintenance of boats, building, trailer and coach boats, subscriptions and licences to BOPRA to name just a few. These expenses are divided over the number of rowers to get an annual rowing fee. Additional costs are added to school rowers that include coaching expenses, fuel and regatta race fees for the club season. This year no allowance has been made in the rowing fees to buy new boats, oars etc but instead funds will be sought from grants and from our big annual fundraiser- the quiz night.

SO IF YOU CAN HELP WITH SPOT PRIZES OR CAN SPONSER US PLEASE LET US KNOW.
THANK YOU

Huge flames, incredible stunts, a real-life bed of nails - it’s a show to keep every member of the family on the edge of their seat!

When: 12th December 2017
Where: Baycourt Addison Theatre, Tauranga

We look forward to seeing you there!

Pay It Forward
Nanogirl believes that science is for everyone, and the Nanogirl Labs team work hard to ensure that tickets to our Nanogirl Live! events are affordable. Despite those efforts, for some New Zealanders, theatre shows like this are still very special events that do not fit within the family budget.

Through our 'Pay-It-Forward' programme, you can help make science and engineering accessible for everyone. For every 'Pay-It-Forward' ticket you purchase, you enable someone who would not otherwise have had the chance to see this live science spectacular to come along. Only available via the Regent Theatre box office.
Buy your tickets now!
