Morning Everyone,
We have smashed the target and now have all the donated money we need to cover the essential costs - thank you everyone for your kind donations.
If you in Cambridge area over 21 July to 25 July its well worth a late afternoon out (think it starts each night after 6pm onwards) – best spot to view and enjoy the atmosphere is the riverside pub called The Plough at Fen Ditton (sits right on the river)

Story
The Cambridgeshire Rowing Association (CRA) Town Bumps is a thrilling annual rowing event which has been held since 1868.
This historic rowing event is held annually on the River Cam (Cambridge) and this unique race involves crews chasing and "bumping" each other in a series of head-to-head competitions.
It's a highlight of the rowing calendar.
This year we have an enthusiastic 8-man rowing team predominantly formed of Dad’s from a club in Cambridgeshire ( Oar-some Eight ) who need all the help they can get.
