On Saturday evening after the Rotary Club dinner the Presentations commenced with awards to the original founders, Ian Grieve and Alan Newton and a photo of all the people who were at the first event in 1980. Unfortunately a few people were unable to make the photo such as Tom Rolfe, Tim Vibert, Mike Cecil and Andrew Browne who were seen at Corowa during the week.
