Race Results - Rotohoe 3
Koia nei te reo o mihi ki a koutou katoa! I tae ā-tīnana mai i runga i Te Rotorua Nui ā Kahumhatamomoe. Mai i Rotorua matangi rau. Koia nei te karapu Waka Ama o Ruamatā e whakanui atu ana. E te iwi tēnā tātau katoa. (Upon the voice of welcome that called to all those who descended upon the great lake named after the Te Arawa ancestor Kahumatamomoe. Upon the multitudes of winds that caress the caldera that is Rotorua. Ruamatā Waka Ama Club celebrates you and acknowledges the multitudes who supported Rotohoe 3). Ānei ngā otinga mō te whakataetae Rotohoe 3 nō tērā Rāhoroi. (Here are the results from Rotohoe 3 last Saturday).
