Fifty-one miles for 51 years

A Conception Bay South man has come up with a unique way to celebrate his birthday while raising money for sick children. Clem Whittle turned 51 in March. In August, the Long Pond man will mark that milestone by rowing 51 miles from North Arm in Holyrood to the St. John's harbour.
