Row to Go 2016
Happy New Year all.
To ward off those winter blues and get us all looking forward to a Great British Summer our Henley Regatta Row to Go competition is back. You will note some subtle changes this year. You still get to choose your team from the four racing but this time you can swap teams halfway if your first choice is lagging behind. You can also sabbotage your fellow competitors performance to give yourself the best chance of winning! Some might call it cheating.....we call it jolly good fun!
As usual all race winners will go through to the main prize draw taking place on 31st May to win a VIP day of hospitality at Henley Royal Regatta.
So, what are you waiting for...virtual oars at the ready!
Good luck.
Row to Go 2015
Thank you to everyone who entered the Row to Go competition this year. Congratulations to our four VIP winners, Jackie Foster, Janet Johnson, Natalie Ainscough and Lisa Tebbutt who will all enjoy the VIP treatment at Temple Island Enclosure on the opening day of Henley Regatta.
Congratulations also go to our runners up, Christina Sleight who gets to enjoy afternoon tea at The Start Enclosure, and Vanessa Alvis and Jon Davies who both win tickets to the Redgrave VIP Regatta Party. Well done to you all, you will have a fabulous day.
Dragons Favourite Tipple
Dragons Den star and business entrepreneur Peter Jones knows a thing or two about great products.
Appearing on BBC's The One Show on Friday 30th January presenter Chris Evans asked guests Peter and Kylie Minogue what their favourite tipples were. Imagine our delight when Peter Jones replied "A couple of pints of Brakspear Beer". The man has impeccable taste buds as well as good business savvy. Cheers Mr Jones!
