Directions to Sack-a-wa for Atom Regatta and other issues

Here are directions and a link to the Sack-a-wa club in Lower Sackville http://sackawa.ca/?page_id=749

Dear Maskwa Members:

This is an important message to please remind your children and teens to pick up their garbage. Maskwa is having serious litter problems this year, in particular popcorn is spilled on a regular occurrence on the decks and it is attracting critters at night and pop cans are being left everywhere. Please place refundable bottles in the blue bins. We are also having issues with things being left behind daily – towels, shirts and lifebelts and buns and on Friday at 4pm all things left behind in the lost and found bin will be emptied into the dumpster.



A special thanks to all the parents who made or donated food items for the officials this past weekend. The officials loved it all. I do have a number of bowls, serving trays etc still needing to be picked up. They are currently in the front foyer to Heritage Hall but will soon be moved to the technical room.



The Atom racing shirts are in. The price is $45 (tax include).



This brings me to one final but important point. A number of parents have been wondering about “C” High Performance group for paddling. If your son or daughter is interested in joining a C group please email Chad Brooks, our Head Paddling Director to discuss (chadbrooks@gmail.com) as we are currently creating a list so we can create a C group. There is an extra cost for the HP group and it’s $75/per month during the summer. The C group would be meeting early in the morning – time has not been determined.


To all the Atom’s racing this weekend at Sack-a-wa – good luck!
