Norfolk Skiff Club Summer Picnic

 At long last summer arrived and Norfolk rowers and scullers gathered at Barton Turf for a relaxing day on the water.

The Rewet crew from King's Lynn made the cross county journey for an opportunity to sample the pleasures of The Broads and they were joined by scullers from Norfolk Skiff Club and CRA Blakeney.

After a picnic at tranquil Gay's Staith, the flotilla landed at the Norfolk Punt Club raft for tea and cake.

In truth little was achieved, but everyone appeared to have enjoyed themselves and finished the day with promises to return next year.

Our thanks are due to Simon and Sheila of Barton Turf Adventure Centre without whose hospitality the day would not have taken place.
