Soft drinks and water will also be available.

Mindil Market food and craft stalls will will be trading all day.

The 2010 Darwin Lions Beer Can Regatta enabled us to raise funds for the Sommerville Disability Service to buy a car to support their HACC program. HACC is a government program that helps community agencies such as Sommerville provide services to people with a disabilities and their carers. This will enable them to provide transport to enable their clients to access medical appointments and other services.

This year's (2011) event benefactor is Carers NT.  We are aiming to purchase  a portable multi-media studio, including recording and production equipment as well as musical instruments, which will enable young carers to communicate the various issues and obstacles they face through the collaboration of music and song, short films, design and marketing.

Keep checking this website as we will be soon be looking for benefactor/s for the 2012 Lions Beer Can Regatta.
