History of Ballarat Head of the Lake rowing regatta

2008 Ballarat Head of the Lake

2008 Program Cover

The continued lack of water in Lake Wendouree forced the event to another venue, this year to the Barwon River. It was the first time that the event has been conducted on the Barwon and as a result was raced over 1500m for the senior crews, not the usual 2000m. The conditions were superb with low 30°C temperatures and a light head breeze.

St Patricks dominated the men's events winning the Harold Deveson Cup for the boys premiership. Ballarat College was very successful in the women's events and won the Patterson Shield for the J H Netherway Cup for the girls premiership.

Loretto officially competed in the Patterson Shield for the Girls Head of the Lake for the first time.
