On Monday 18 November, St Edmund’s College Boat Club was pleased to celebrate the launch of a new racing eight to add to the Boat Club fleet. The boat, a Janousek, was named “Andy Harter” at a ceremony attended by the Master, Professor Chris Young and the Boat Club President, Kathy Begley together with other members of the College and guests.
The boat purchase was made possible by a generous matched donation from Fellow Commoner Lily Bacon. A new set of oars were provided by kind donations from Fellows and Alumni. After a brief naming ceremony, members of the Boat Club put the boat on the water for the first time and rowed past to loud cheers from the bank. Good luck to “Andy” and all who row in her!
