Rowing News

NHRC in Europe

New Haven rower Jonathan Winter writes:

"US Rowing recently approved me to go race in the final leg of the World Cup series. It takes place in Lucerne, Switzerland July 10-12. The real surprise is that I will race in the Lm2x, one of the two Lightweight Men's Olympic boat classes. I race with Brian Tryon. Brian and I raced together in the US Rowing selection event back in May, where we came in 2nd. The 1st place boat
will also go to Lucerne."

Go Jon! For those of you with a massive cable TV package, keep your eyes open: I (Claire Potter) was able to pick up some races from World Cup I on an obscure Comcast channel. Go into your program guide, click on "Miscellaneous sports," and if rowing pops up, you are all set for a long afternoon of top quality oarsmen and women.

In addition, our neighbors have some news: the Yale Men's 4+ battled its way through to the final in the Prince Albert Cup, but then lost to a powerful Oxford Brooks crew yesterday. See all results here.

BOD Meeting Moved

In addition, the monthly Board of Directors meeting will be on Wednesday, July 15 at 6:30. Meetings are held in the great room of the boat house, and all members are invited to attend to see how the club *really* works!!! But be warned: show up too often and act too competent, and you might actually get elected to the Board.
