David Parry
Three of the above races are being run in Memory of David Parry. This year's regatta is being held for the first time in many years without his presence as he sadly died last September.
As a member of Walton Rowing Club, David won Maiden Fours here in 1952, something he and his crew celebrated fifty years later by rowing over the course on the Regatta day. He went on to row at the highest levels, including success at Henley Royal Regatta where he also became a Steward. David maintained a close association with rowing at Walton throughout his life, both the Club and the Regatta. As Chairman of the Regatta Committee he brought positive leadership and energy, as well as practical involvement. This very active participation scarcely reduced when he became President. When he stood down from this role, David would still be found on the day of the Regatta ensuring the swans were kept clear of the racing.
David Parry was an outstanding figure, inspiring confidence and respect in all those who knew him.
