Saturday Notes, Fines and Thank yous

[David O'Loughlin]

Dear all,

 

Thank you so much from CUCBC for a successful May Bumps, despite the weather’s best efforts. We wish to thank everyone who marshalled, umpired, cycled, coached, rowed and coxed. The notes and fines from Saturday are attached below.

I’ll send around the results of the Mitchell and Pegasus Cups during the week, along with some notes on rowing over the summer. For now, enjoy the break! We’ll see you all again in Michaelmas.

 

Very best,

David
