Eikenhof Dam
For the last stage of the tour, we arrived at Eikenhof Dam just outside Grabouw, in the Western Cape.
Dune Training
In the late afternoon, the boys took to the dunes near Port Alfred for some tough training in the sand. (some cool b&w pics from Mr. Henshilwood)
Township Walkabout
After the morning's training session, the boys went on walkabout with the development squad to see their township homes - a bit of an eye-opener, but a remarkably warm welcome.
Kowie Development Squad
In Port Alfred, the squad met a remarkable youth group from the local township which uses rowing as a means of building self-respect and discipline, and offering a way out of poverty and disadvantage. The township squad joined the Eton boys for a great morning of training and interaction.
