The flame was rowed halfway across the lake by the professional rowers, then handed off to a group of eight juniors. Following the torch relay that ended at the Victoria City Rowing Club, Minister of State for Sport Gary Lunn announced a $550,000 investment from the federal government to expand the rowing club.
