Participate in the "Learn to Drive (A Trailer)" Program

There is going to be a Safe Trailer Driving and Loading Workshop at Saugatuck Rowing Association, on Sunday, Sept 9th. (entry deadline Sept 2nd). John Poole is planning to attend.

If anyone out there is interested in getting more involved in the boat transporation process (either as a driver, passenger, or just as a committed extra-hand), we could certainly use the help, especially with the upcoming fall racing season (maybe John will even let you drive his Big Red Truck.)

Please let John know if you are interested in getting involved in transporation generally, and more specifically, if you are interested in attending this clinic.

Safe Trailer Driving & Loading Workshop Westport, CT. Contact John Poole or Margot Zalkind at MargotATrowingeducationDOTorg. Host: Saugatuck Rowing Association. Entry Deadline: September 2, 2007. For the Foundation for Rowing Education, click here

Just a quick reminder that the close of the On-Line Registration System is approaching. Each Club must have their entries completed and paid infull prior to the closing date. At midnight July 19th the system state will be set to prevent the creation of any new crews in the system. You will then have 24 hours to complete any crews that have not been paid for and finalize payment of all entry fees. At midnight July 20th the system will close and taken off line. Remember, only those crews completely filled and paid for will be included in the Preliminary Draw.
