Jesse Scott here, I’m the one of the Atom coaches
this year and I just wanted to take this opportunity to express how much fun I had at this last regatta and how amazingly our Atoms did.
We got everyone in tons of races and the whole lot of them seemed exhausted and happy at the end, and isn’t that really the goal? On top of that, Maskwa had an incredible showing points-wise at the regatta.
Whether it’s coming 1st in Mixed War Canoe or our many ribbons in other single and team events, Maskwa made a huge splash at Sackawa! We even won the coveted “Most Points per Paddler” award and were runners up in the “Most Points Overall” category. So all in all an awesome weekend and I’m looking forward to another one at the end of the summer with Atom Champs!
Also I want to give a shout out to LA Dempster and Peter Giles who were both a gigantic help at the regatta, LA with getting kids on the water and to their races (and even finding a couple boats for us) and to Peter for basically loading the trailer for the coaches. Thanks so much guys! I’d also like to give a very special thank you to my new Assistant Coach, Brandon Pace, for his help at the regatta. I can’t pay you, but it was a great help to have you there! I'd also like to say a big thank you to all parents and helpers at the races, you make my job and the jobs of my fellow coaches much easier with all your efforts.
