A businessman who was formerly a passionate rower for the Don Rowing Club donated a $20,000 four-person boat to the club. The boat, named "Spirit of '93", was donated through the businessman's staffing company and honors his most successful year of 1993 when he was part of a four-man crew that won at the Henley regatta. The new boat was christened at a ceremony and then taken out on the water by rowers from the club's junior A crew.
