Gotcha4Life 24 Hour Row
They say it 'takes a village' and that is certainly what happened at Pambula SLSC. The Gotcha4Life 24 hour row was yet another successful weekend at PB. Our community came together and rowed a total of 1100.543km and so far we have raised $2620. An incredible team effort from a small community. This money will be spent locally on Mental Fitness workshops & resources so no-one worries alone. Special Thanks to all our groups participating this year and to our very own club member Chris Ryan for rowing 100km in 9.5 hours. Outstanding effort!
