Trent Rowing Club paid a special tribute to its late former President, John Hayward, during the recent opening celebrations of the Club's new boat barn.
John served as President of Trent Rowing Club for over 30 years, playing an important role in its history and development. On a beautiful autumn day, members, friends and supporters gathered to celebrate the opening of the new facilities, with a particularly special moment being the unveiling of a commemorative plaque dedicated to John.
We were delighted to welcome John's wife, Jill, and daughter, Rachel, to share the occasion with us (sadly, his daughter Melanie was unable to attend). It was a lovely opportunity to remember John and celebrate the lasting contribution he made to Trent Rowing Club.
Jill and her family expressed their thanks for all the kind words and warm wishes shared on the day. They were pleased to see the Club taking this exciting step forward and look forward to watching Trent continue to go from strength to strength with its new facilities.
John will always be remembered with great affection and gratitude by everyone at Trent Rowing Club.
