Dr Steve Hinchy named Rowing Australia Volunteer of the Year

Announced at the prestigious Rowing Australia Rower of the Year Awards, Queenslander Dr Stephen Hinchy was named the 2015 Volunteer of the Year for his tireless efforts working as a volunteer Boat Race Official and also mentoring up and coming BROs. Dr Hinchy also worked for many years as the Australian Rowing Team doctor and is a Life Member of Rowing Australia. Of the award, Hinchy said, “you volunteer because you want to and you don’t expect any reward from it so to have received this award at the function in Canberra is truly an honour.” Other award winners for the evening included Erik Horrie, Kim Brennan, Lyall McCarthy and Kerry Hore.
Congratulations Steve! We are very proud to call you a fellow Queenslander!
