<DIV style="RIGHT: auto">Lake Burley Griffin was closed last week during the flooding due to water quality issues.

<DIV style="RIGHT: auto"><STRONG style="RIGHT: auto">Wallagoot Lake Regatta - this weekend</STRONG></DIV>
<DIV style="RIGHT: auto">The Wallagoot Lake regatta is happening on 10-11 March (Canberra Day weekend). The trip is pretty much full but we can hire a boat or two (Pacers) from the local club. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV style="RIGHT: auto">Wallagoot Lake is in Bournda NP near Tathra. At the club house there's camp sites, showers and toilets, (you need to bring drinking water or drinking beer). The club puts on BBQ lunches, breakfast and a delicious dinner all at reasonable prices.</DIV>
<DIV style="RIGHT: auto"> </DIV>
<DIV>Participants have to attend a pretrip on Thursday to put the boats on the trailers and aftertrip on Sunday to wash the boats and put them back in their places. If you are interested put your name here (don't delay, we only have a limited trailer capacity). </DIV>
