24.01.2022 A beautiful farewell for our beautiful Bei Loon and Pittwater Pinks member, Megan. So lovely to have Steve, Lauren and Madie there too and Meg’s Mum and brother. You are well loved and so deeply missed Megs Godspeed...

23.01.2022 Had to share Angie’s amazing dragon boat cake complete with Bei Loon boat, shirt and pink hat!

23.01.2022 A virtual group workout, nightly at 6pm?

21.01.2022 Missing paddling????

21.01.2022 Vale Megan Tozer Just a few amazing memories, gold medals at Nationals, winning our category at the International Breast Cancer Participatory Commissions Festival in Florence, Italy and the WAM team being the three breast cancer survivors to qualify for the World Club Crew Champs in Szeged, Hungary where we paddled like demons and smashed our PBs. Megan, you were a force to be reckoned with, strong but soft, funny but sensitive, so generous with your time and care of others, a great friend, a fierce and strong paddler, an amazing Mum and Wife. We will all miss you and your cheeky and infectious laugh

19.01.2022 It might have been day 1 of the 25th AusChamps hosted by DBNSW today, but it's also 25 years of DBNSW. Thank you to all those members past and present to get us to where we are today. What has been your most memorable moment over the past 25 years?

19.01.2022 Keep an eye out on your email inboxes Bei Looners. I feel a training session in the air.

19.01.2022 I’d be happy to be called a Rower at the present moment!

19.01.2022 We're starting to get the hang of it now - 2nd week back after lockdown. Here are some of our members warming up. Followed training with coffee at our various favourite water holes in Mona Vale and Bayview.

18.01.2022 Great turnout for our postponed Australia Day bbq and annual thong throwing comp with Mark taking out the men’s comp and Kathy taking the women’s crown! Huge thanks to Louise, Angie, Kathy, Doreen and Siew, our social committee and to our other elves on the day

18.01.2022 Attention all Bei Looners - we are back on the water this Sunday 7.45am for an 8am hit out. Please ensure you rsvp on Team App! Yippee!!!

18.01.2022 This month's Pittwater Life have an article on our famous Scotland Island race. Check out page 30 https://www.yumpu.com//653/pittwater-life-march-2021-issue

18.01.2022 Finally Bei Loon starts training again!

17.01.2022 50 is now our favourite number. That's the maximum we can have at any training session under NSW covid rules. It certainly makes our mid-week sessions easier to co-ordinate. That just leaves our most popular day of the week for some creative scheduling - Sunday!

17.01.2022 Our first social event post lockdown. Here we are showing off our on land paddling strength. Sausages (including vegetarian) for all those hungry paddlers as well as sweets from the Pinata - thanks Linda!

16.01.2022 Happy Easter Bei Loon Bunnies and friends, can’t wait to ‘hop’ back in the boat again right???!!!

16.01.2022 Dreaming of all three!

15.01.2022 Everyone has adapted well to the COVID safety procedures which have enabled us to get back on the water and resume our training.

15.01.2022 Google image today - if only!

14.01.2022 Pendragons training :)

14.01.2022 Dragon Cloud! How good was paddling today? Thank you Steve McKeogh for easing us into training

12.01.2022 Our 2021 Scotland Island Race - fabulous water conditions.

11.01.2022 It’s upside down now but won’t be once we have it on the water this weekend. Thanks to Lesley and Pete we have the new sign on one of our boats. Thanks also to Lyn for measuring up and purchasing. Now if we loose our boat while we are paddling on Pittwater, whoever finds it knows where to return it.

09.01.2022 Our first hit out after 4 months, man it was great! About 40 of us and the weather was beautiful. Welcome back Bei Looners!

08.01.2022 See you at the next regatta!

08.01.2022 What a great day Bei Loon, the weather was kind and after a 5 years break we finally were able to paddle around Scotland Island! Huge thanks to all the clubs who travelled from far and wide, we hope you enjoyed it! Massive thanks to George as our Race Organiser extraordinaire, our Social Committee of Lou, Ange, Doreen and Siew, safety boats, Pete and Lesley, John, John and Lisa and to all our amazing helpers who simply mucked it and just did it! You all rock, long live Bei Loon!

07.01.2022 Who’s with me on this one???

07.01.2022 I so hope we’ll be back in the boat soon.... I so hope our head coach hasn’t seen this....

06.01.2022 Three of our newer members had their first experience with the club's outrigger this morning. We also had a SUP and 2 kayaks to keep everyone busy. Thanks to Sarah, one of our fabulous coaches, who kept a watchful eye on proceedings. And no one fell in! What an achievement for our newcomers. Has anyone spotted our newest member (of the canine variety)?

05.01.2022 Current advice about the CCWC

04.01.2022 Check out our smiing faces. First time out on the water with our Bei Loon family for nearly 5 months. We all remembered how to chatter but not sure I remembered where all my paddling muscles went. Steve was gentle with us (in a Steve way) and we only paddled 8 kms and nearly 2,000 strokes - with lots of rests.

03.01.2022 Checked the boats today. Can’t wait to get back out on our beautiful Pittwater!

03.01.2022 Sadly COVID meant that a number of clubs couldn't attend our annual 8K Scotland Island Race. But that didn't stand in the way of Parks DBC. Despite their disappointment they staged their own Western NSW Region 8km challenge in Parkes on the same date. There were seven clubs represented in five boat crews with Dubbo winning in 44.41 minutes. They launched at ‘Rowland Reserve’, paddled around ‘Scotland Island’ and passed by ‘Wild Oats’. Check out the photographs - didn't they do a great job? We will welcome back with open arms next year with a race around the 'real Scotland Island'.

03.01.2022 AGM 2020. Steve McKeogh receiving his Bei Loon Life Membership.

02.01.2022 Winner, winner chicken dinner
