A special moment came when Club Chairman John Curran presented the Under 16 Boys with a framed photograph of their race at the All-Irelands, recognising their achievements at the event. In a lovely gesture of appreciation, the juniors presented John, their coach and cox, with a framed painting of the same photograph as a thank you for all his hard work, dedication and support throughout the season.
