Dr Sue Jacklin is a boat!

Last friday myself, Geoff and Anne-Marie went up to the clubs boat house in York for the naming ceremony of their newest boat. The boat was a very kind gift from Mr Courtney-Hatcher who's son rowed with the club for 3 years while at University. It was named after Dr Sue Jacklin (Assistant Director of Sport) who's hard work and fighting on behalf of the club over a number of years has been invaluable!
The Vice-Chancellor Prof. Michael Arthur was delighted to attend, find out more about the club and even got the boat with Sue on the river!
