On Sunday 9 June 24 at Durham Regatta saw the coming together of a quad of ODs. Despite not one of them stepping foot in a boat for approximately 35 years they entered the "Open Masters D/E handicap Coxed Four-oared" and ended up in the final ! They came in an admiral second place ... And managed to avoid crashing, capsizing or injury !!! They loved every minute of it. The crowds were amazed at their bravery ...Durham School truly does give you "Confidence for Life" !
