Please help make this a successful event. We rely on monies raised to fund all of our Capital Equipment,
including boats, oars, ergs, and launches. The only way we will reach our $20,000 goal is with the support of
all team families – please attend the party or buy tickets even if you cannot attend. Kindly forward this
invitation to your friends and family.

Monday, March 15, is our first day of practice, from 3:30 until 6.

PLEASE NOTE:  We will be meeting at Wayland High School, so please plan your dropoff and pickup accordingly.  The room is L1, in the Language Building.  This room is in a building between the first building you drive by and the field house, and I or a coach will be out in front to direct you once you have parked.

Parents, you are invited to the first hour of practice (3:30-4:30), which will be a presentation on nutrition by Nancy Clark, one of the best speakers available on sports nutrition.  Please come!  You will find out what to feed your athlete before and after practice and races.

Rowers, the price of admission to the nutrition talk is a snack–you must be properly fueled for the afternoon.  

Rowers, you will have other presentations, squad meetings and possibly a short run or workout after the nutrition talk.  Watch your email for a message from your coach about whether or not you will be working out that day.

See you Monday!

Hi Everyone,
Saturday morning at 9:30 AM we will be setting up the boathouse for the 2010 spring season. All Varsity Girls, All Varsity Boys, and returning novice girls and novice boys are encouraged to attend. Those taking the SAT Exam that day are excused, as are new novices. We will be breaking up into groups to clean the boathouse, setup the docks, rig the shells, etc. Please come dressed for the weather, it looks like it could be a bit soggy. I would expect that we’ll have everything done by noon at latest if everyone shows up ready to work! Also, please let me know if you’re child can not attend (Sat takers good luck and don’t worry, I already know you can’t be there!)
