Receipts from admission badges topped £41 with over £10 more from refreshments, plus expected post-dance proceeds pushing totals beyond £60. The afternoon saw swimmers and craft on the river, with many events drawing competitive entries and new club members, signaling a promising era for Northam rowing and swimming activities.
