Congratulatiions to former club members Brian and Colleen Dietrich - who had the winning ticket for this year's 2019 Summer Windfall. They are now $2,620 richer. That was the payout for the bi-annual 50/50 fundraiser. This is a record amount for the summer windfall and we thank the many ticket sellers who worked so hard for the team. The drawing was held and the annual Haddon Township Summer Solstice celebration.

​Today, both the girls double and girls quad competed in the D Finals. In their race, the girls quad held the lead the entire way down the 2000 meter course but were eclipsed in the final stroke, missing first place by a mere 2 tenths of a second. A  phenomenal race. The girls double put in a very strong performance, fighting hard the entire way against their competitors.
