Dear Fellow Crewsters & Friends:
Two (2) quick items:
1. The next Crewsters meeting will be held on Thursday, January 19th @ 7 p.m. in the High School Library.
You may have received a notice that the next Crewster meeting will be held this Thursday (January 12th) however some individuals have conflicts with meeting on the second Thursday of each month so the Crewsters will attempt to accommodate that conflict. Again, the next Crewsters meeting will be held on Thursday January the 19th. Please attempt to attend.
[ We still need a Chairperson to collect clothing orders. Any volunteers?]

2. When the winter training program costs were communicated last month they were calculated to be $185 for all varsity rowers and $120 for all Novice rowers.
By prior e-mail I informed you that the F- M School District had reconsidered its prior position that the students participating in the winter training would be required to pay a fee of approximately $3,200 to use the a room at F- M High School to train. In that e-mail I told you that Dr. Kaiser had called to inform me that room usage fee would be reduced to a flat $5 per student that participates in the winter training.
Thanks to the reduction in the room usage fee, F- M Coach Dave Schnall has been able to whittle the overall cost down to $110 for all varsity rowers and $60 for the Novice rowers that participate in the winter training.
Pending a resolution of the issue of room usage fee the Coaches held off cashing the checks rowers had previously given to them and as a result the Coaches have not yet been paid.
You are requested to give you son or daughter a new check for the reduced amount ($110 or $60) when they go to winter training this week and in return the Coach will in hand give your child the uncashed larger amount check that you previously gave them to square away payment.
Please cooperate. The coaches working during winter training are more or less volunteers sacrificing their time for remuneration that amounts to not much more than gas money. They should not be expected to have to chase down parents to give the parent a refund.
If you have any questions or suggestions then please contact me,
Thank you for you continued assistance and cooperation.
Bob O'Leary
p.s. Did I mention that we still need a volunteer to oversee the clothing orders?
