Opening of the Peace Bridge
The new bridge opens this saturday (25/06/11). We plan to sail into town to mark this historic occassion and participate in the celebrations.
The St Columcille boat will be stationed upstream of the bridge, LFYC will stand off downstream. When the bridge opens at 3.00pm the St Colomcille will row under the bridge and LFYC plan to form a procession after her as she travels down the Foyle.
We plan to leave Culmore at 12.00. Bring sandwichs, drinks etc. All welcome. It would be great to see lots of boats (Dinghys and Punts) out for this once in a lifetime event.
