Favorite thing: Karapiro is the home of the National Rowing teams when in training.
Here they are in May 2004, preparing for the Athens Olympics.
Fondest memory: Most activity with the rowers occurs very early in the morning before the wind gets up, and again later in the afternoon. I saw highschool students rowing, then change into school uniforms and drive off in time for school to start. They are very dedicated to put in a few hours rowing before their classes!!

Created by a dam, for the hydro scheme, Lake Karapiro is very picturesque. Capable of being very foggy and damp in the winter, on a sunny blue sky day it is really nice.
