New boats named for rowing greats

Wits University Boat Club held an Alumni Day at Wemmer Pan on 6 May 2018 to celebrate its history and achievements and to strengthen the relationship between the alumni and the current club members. 
The club was established in 1924.
To honour some of the greats of Wits Rowing, WUBC named its newest boats after alumni who represent the club spirit: Wynand Dreyer, John Stark, Ivan Pentz, Rob McCall and Colleen Orsmond.
