                                          THE DRUM BEATER  APRIL 2013

Welcome to our newsletter from the MRDBC. Hope everyone is keeping well and our paddlers that are carrying injuries are looking after themselves.

It has been a quiet month with no flooding happening in the Manning River.

MOTHERS DAY.

A reminder of the Mothers Day raffle.  Please give your tickets, money to either Cathy Stenchion, Deb Ashwell or Narelle Minett. The raffle will be drawn on Sat 4th May at the Mothers Day Breakfast.

The Breaky is at Raw Sugar Cafe, Victoria St Taree after paddling on the Saturday about 9ish for the paddlers not paddling and just doing Breakfast.

Names to Gaye please who is coming to celebrate Mothers Day.

Anyone related to  Cath Stenchion will NOT be winning the raffle this year!

Our next regatta is at Urunga on Sat 18thMay and Sun 19th May. A 2km race on Sat and Sprints on Sun.

Port Macquarie Sat 8th June  18 km and Sun 9th May Sprints.  There is extra training organized o n Sundays for the 18km race.  It is fun and it is great paddling along different waterways.
