Not so Spring-like at the #ElginSpringRegatta this weekend BUT the rowing did not disappoint, and many a great race, win, and silver went the way of PGRC.

Over the weekend the PGRC girls took part in the Elgin Spring Regatta. For many, it was the first regatta in many months, for some, their first-ever. It rained, the girls were freezing but the rewards were GREAT. #PgrcRowing #ElginSpringRegatta #PGRCgirlsrow
