The Water Warriors headed to
Kelowna for the final regatta of the season and made some long lasting memories! Tough competition pushed us to really give all we had..and we did! We placed 4
th in the top division (Platinum A) and had some very brag worthy times! In the afternoon on Sat., we had an awesome 2:18!! Unbelievable! So proud of ourselves! This picture was taken during the final race, and as you can tell, the conditions of the water was less than desirable, to say the least. Races were postponed 2 hours to wait out the 2 foot swells. Of course, the women were the g
uinea pigs and sent to try out the new 250m course (from 500m) and showed the mixed teams how it's done! The finals were only raced by the women, and during our final, I was told that the conditions were at it's most dangerous. After we were done, the event organizers cancelled the rest of the races. Guess the boys couldn't hack it..
haha
On Sat.
nite, we had a "Purple Party" at the hotel on the lawn in the back by the lake, to honor our wonderful and amazing coach! It was a surprise to her, so when we all showed up dressing like purple fools, she felt a bit out of place! We took care of it, and dressed her up in purple! HA Go figure, the one time we EXPECT her to wear purple clothes, she shows up to the party in a yellow and black dress! Murphy's law, of course!
