Maurice Jones dies NZSSRA Life Member
Maurice Jones (85) died in Dunedin on Wednesday 11 June 2008 after a long illness. He was a life member of the NZSSRA and for many years was the coach at Otago Boys High School. Maurice was a stalwart of Otago rowing and a life member of the Otago Rowing Association. His service to rowing had been recognised within our sport by the award of an NZRA Service Jacket and at large by a Queens Service Medal.

New Life Member Jack Collin
At the 2008 NZSSRA AGM members unanimously elected Jack Collin to Life Membership of the Association. Jack has been instrumental in bolstering school rowing wherever he resides. Wellington, Nelson and more recently Canterbury are just three regions that have benefitted tremendously from the Jack's enthusiasm for school rowing and his drive and dedication. Jack's fine contribution to rowing has been recognised with Life Memberships in several clubs around the country. In addition Jack has served on the NZSSRA Executive as well as the NZARA Council. We congratulate Jack upon his election to Life Membership.
