We heard from former members from the Program including Olympic Bronze Rowing Medallist Ria Thompson (Class of 2015), the Director of the Australian Institute of Sport, Matti Clements (Class of 1996) and past Head of LH Rowing, Zoe Ryan for their reflections as well as from representatives from the program today. Thank you to all of our attendees who joined us for the celebration!
Additionally, we are thrilled to share that, thanks to the generosity of our community, we have exceeded our fundraising goal for the Lowther Hall Rowing Program! Our community came together to raise an incredible $12,350, surpassing our original target of $10,000. This milestone ensures that our rowers continue to have access to the best possible resources, including new speed coaches, pairs of oars, and updated uniforms—all of which will enhance training, improve performance, and foster team spirit.
We extend our heartfelt thanks to every donor who contributed to this success. Your support makes a tangible difference, empowering our athletes to train and compete with confidence.
