Cool rain teemed down sending folk scurrying for cover which,<br />

happily, was to be found at McKenzie and Willis. In the car park a<br />

magnifi cent marquee had sprouted under which Oarsome O’Fare<br />

was getting into full swing. Sushi, sandwiches and other treats<br />

were passed around, the abundantly laden platters eagerly fallen<br />

upon and divested of the goodies. Throughout the store, guests<br />

thronged, chatting or listening to the various school musicians<br />

displaying their prowess. The hubbub within the tent was excited<br />

as auction items were perused and bids proffered. The fortunes of<br />

Canterbury schools’ future rowing luminaries are secure, thanks<br />

to the generosity of those who attended.<br />

OPERA AT PEGASUS BAY<br />

An ocean of brollies sprouted on the grassy knoll, shielding faces<br />

from the sun as sweet strains of Mozart lifted on the breeze, fi lling<br />

the glade. Centre stage at Pegasus Bay Winery was the Christchurch<br />

Symphony Orchestra presenting an afternoon of opera and musical<br />

delight. Well loved and timeless arias rang about the green, leafy<br />

amphitheatre, rivalled only by the crickets and birds. Prior to the<br />

concert and during the interval, guests mingled, partaking of the<br />

fi nest fare. The day of artistry and excellence culminated in a lively<br />

can-can, complete with audience participation!<br />
