Sport Relief Mile in Gateshead

“Volunteers from Tyne United Rowing Club left the riverside to head
to Saltwell Park in Gateshead to run an indoor rowing event for the
Sport Relief Mile on Sunday 21^st March.

The club had been asked by Gateshead Council to help the Community
Sports Coach in running an indoor rowing event as part of the
activities happening at the Sport Relief Mile.
The 2010 event was at Saltwell Park – Gateshead’s award winning
Victorian era park – as ever with one eye on rowing on the water, Gav
soon spotted the boating lake within the park and was deliberating as
to whether he should ring up Chris to bring the trailer with one of the
Learn to Row boats and put it in the lake, however he soon realised
that this probably wouldn’t go down well with the Council events team,
so he decided to stick to the ergos!”
