Notes | Two rowing caps for the St Georges Bay Rowing Club The St Georges Bay Rowing Club was formed in 1883 at St Georges Bay in Parnell. It was quickly rebuilt and became a social hub among Aucklanders of all classes, although members reserved the right to exclude anyone they considered unworthy. In 1895 the club suffered a second fire and re-established itself round the corner in Judges Bay. World War One took almost the entire club membership to the front line. Seventeen of the 101 who enlisted were killed. In 1928 yet another challenge arose with the planned construction of the main trunk railway and Tamaki Drive which would cut off the bay from the Waitemata Harbour. The club was demolished and a new base was built at Mechanics Bay in 1932. World War Two soon called, leaving only three members behind and the club in recess. Tragically more than half the club's members, including seven of nine committee members, never made it home. But again the club soldiered on and was active at Mechanics Bay until 1949 before being evicted by the Auckland Harbour Board. The building was cut into chunks, loaded on trucks and moved to Kings Rd in Panmure where it had secured a 21-year lease for £15 a year. The move to Panmure was considered risky given the area had only a hotel, a grocery store, a dairy and very few houses. The membership gradually increased as a new suburb of mainly state housing was created and locals joined up. "During the 1990s things got pretty thin and pretty tough but two or three people kept it going," The club celebrated its 125th Anniversary in 2008. | |||||||||||||||||||||||
