President McAleese comments on the River Blackwater following the historical visit to Fermoy Rowing Club on the 25th of June 2010.
Q. "President McAleese, You spoke this morning about how important the sport of rowing was to your family. As you know the river Blackwater has a long association with the sport and the river is very important to the people of Fermoy and, indeed the people of the region. Would you agree that we all need to do more to protect our waterways for future generations?"
A. "Well, Rowing is one of those wonderful sports that is very gentle on the water, it leaves no marks. Most people who use the inland waterways know how importan this enviroment is but we must remember that we are only guests in the enviroment so we have to ensure that whatever we do, we must make sure it is done with a sense of care and a view to our children's future. It is this sense of stewardship that the wonderful Fermoy Rowing Club has maintained over the last 126 years and I am sure that they and the other river users will ensure that the Blackwater will be safe for future generations."
