Spectaculair opening of Worldchampionship Rowing at Bosbaan

With a rocking ceremony the World Rowing Junior Championships have been declared open. After a splendid performance of the girls rockband 'Peps', two parachutists were dropped by the Royal Dutch Ariforce. They brought the flag of the International rowing federation (FISA) and the Dutch flag. Guided by flares they landed in the Bosbaan precisely in front of the grandstands. They handed the flags to Matt Smith, Executive Director of the FISA and Henk-Jan Zwolle, Chariman of the Organising Committee.
