<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">It is now clear that running the event whilst social distancing measures are in place would be impossible. Postponement, unfortunately, is not an option as the shorter evenings later in the year would not allow enough time for practice sessions.
So, in it’s over one hundred years history only two world wars and the construction of flood defences and now Covid-19 have been able to interrupt this unique village event. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Stay safe, and we hope to see you on December 5th at the Christmas Carols on Vicarage Fields.

Regatta - <span style="margin: 0px;"> </span>Friday 13<sup>th</sup></span></b></div>
<span lang="EN-US" style="margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">We had a record breaking number of entries
for this years regatta! </span></span><br />
<span lang="EN-US" style="margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">This would have resulted in over 200 races.
Which is just not possible in one day.</span></span><br />
<span lang="EN-US" style="margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">The Boys U14 Single Sculls races combined
have 33 races.</span></span><br />
<span lang="EN-US" style="margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">The Minnie Cowley (Girls singles) has 31
races.</span></span><br />
<span lang="EN-US" style="margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">Boys and girls kayaks have 38 races.</span></span><br />
<span lang="EN-US" style="margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">The published rules allow the committee to
reduce the number of races by removing rowers from the over-subscribed races by
blind draw. </span></span><br />
<span lang="EN-US" style="margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">Rather than cut 30 young competitors we
decided to run 30 races on Friday evening (from 6.30 to 8.00 ).</span></span><br />

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 11.0pt; margin-bottom: 6.0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial",sans-serif; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">The Regatta has
been running for over 100 years and we want it to continue for another hundred!
This will only be possible if we get new active committee members. If you are
considering joining us, we thought it would be useful to describe what is involved.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 11.0pt; margin-bottom: 6.0pt;">
</div>
<ul>
<li><b style="text-indent: -18pt;"><span style="font-family: "Arial",sans-serif; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;"><span style="color: #6aa84f;">Attend committee
meetings.</span></span></b><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; text-indent: -18pt;"> The committee meets about 9 times a year, with most meetings taking
place in the months leading up to the Regatta in July. Duties are shared among
committee members at these meetings.</span></li>
<li><b style="text-indent: -18pt;"><span style="font-family: "Arial",sans-serif; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;"><span style="color: #6aa84f;">Getting boats
out/putting boats away</span>.</span></b><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; text-indent: -18pt;"> The boats are stored in the boat house and need moving/lifting
to and from there to Regatta practice. The punts are so heavy that it takes 10
people to lift them. Other items (life jackets, oars, rudders, etc.) are stored
at various locations in the village and need to be collected and made ready for
Regatta practice.</span></li>
<li><b style="text-indent: -18pt;"><span style="font-family: "Arial",sans-serif; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;"><span style="color: #6aa84f;">Boat
maintenance.</span></span></b><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; text-indent: -18pt;"> The boats have to be prepared and maintained in the evenings before
they are used for practice and the Regatta. The work involves cleaning, sanding
and painting. This maintenance usually takes place 2 or 3 weeks before the Regatta
practice sessions begin and usually takes place in the evenings and weekends.</span></li>
<li><b style="text-indent: -18pt;"><span style="font-family: "Arial",sans-serif; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;"><span style="color: #6aa84f;">Practice
evenings.</span></span></b><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; text-indent: -18pt;"> (typically at least 2 sessions per week). On practice evenings in the 4
weeks before the Regatta all committee members come down to the river to ensure
that the practice sessions run smoothly. If you already come down most evenings
with your children, why not join in?</span></li>
<li><b style="text-indent: -18pt;"><span style="font-family: "Arial",sans-serif; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;"><span style="color: #6aa84f;">Regatta Day.</span></span></b><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; text-indent: -18pt;"> All Committee
members help to set up the Regatta field on the Friday afternoon before Regatta
Day, help on Regatta Day, and help clear up on the Sunday morning afterwards.
The Friday session usually begins at 1pm and goes on until all jobs are done;
work commitments mean many members don’t turn up until after 5pm so some
members need to take time off work to ensure the field is ready. You don’t have
to be there the whole time but many hands make light work!</span></li>
<li><b style="text-indent: -18pt;"><span style="font-family: "Arial",sans-serif; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;"><span style="color: #6aa84f;">Taking on a
senior role.</span></span></b><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; text-indent: -18pt;"> The Regatta relies on succession planning to ensure its future, so most
committee members need to be prepared to become Chairman at some stage.
Typically this will be after some time learning the ropes then becoming Vice
Chairman for 2 years before doing a 2 year stint as Chairman. The Chairman’s
role is that of event manager.</span></li>
<li><b style="text-indent: -18pt;"><span style="font-family: "Arial",sans-serif; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;"><span style="color: #6aa84f;">Other village
events the Regatta is involved with.</span></span></b><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; text-indent: -18pt;"> As a community organisation, the Regatta committee is
involved in other village events, namely the Hemingfords’ Bonfire, the Regatta
Ball and the Christmas Carols on Vicarage Fields. Duties here involve setting
up and taking down the Regatta tents, collecting money at the gate and clearing
up the field on the following day (Bonfire), providing mince pies and mulled
wine (Carols), setting up and clearing up after the Ball.</span></li>
