Family Achievements
Jacinta Blencowe represented Australia in Hawaii at the World Vintage Softball Carnival. Sun, surf, palm trees, mountains — in what more beautiful place could you think of to play! With a couple of days off for swimming and sightseeing, she checked the Pearl Harbour memorial for Blencowes (of any spelling) but didn't find any!! Her next challenge is the World Masters in Sydney in October — I wonder if she'll find any Blencowes there!
Best wishes to Jack Blencowe of Oxford on his 85th birthday in May. As the former editor of the newsletter, Jack is still actively working on improving the database and is our knowledge on all important things "Blencowe".
Son of Pam Blencowe, Rhys Carter, has been named in the 12 man squad of the Boomers (Australian Basketball Team) to tour Argentina and Brazil before taking on New Zealand in the Oceania Championship in Sydney this month.
