Subject: [FMHS_Crew] Novice/Varsity Tank Time

Good evening all,

 

We are a little over a week away, so I wanted to remind all novice athletes about the start of the Syracuse Chargers Winter Novice Program being held at the Tank Room at Syracuse University.  The program is open to all athletes that are interested in rowing Novice in the spring.  I will be running the program for the Chargers, with help from Coach Higgins and Schnall and my wife Julie.

 

The program will run for six weeks, beginning January 21st.  Sessions will be held Saturday/Sunday from 3:00 - 5:00 PM.  The actual dates are: January 21st/22nd & 28th/29th and February 4th/5th, 11th/12th, 18th/19th & 25th/26th.  Athletes are free to attend any or all sessions.  The program cost is $80 and is open to both male and female athletes.  Those interested in being coxswains are also free to attend, although the focus will be on developing rowing skills.  I will available at the Crewster’s meeting next Wednesday if there are any questions about the program.  Also, feel free to send me an email.

 

In addition, I was able to secure tank time at the university for the Varsity Boy's.  There will be four available sessions (all on Saturdays) from 1:00 - 3:00 PM.  The dates are February 4th, 11th, 18th and 25th.  The cost is TBD, but will be less than $10 per athlete.  The price will be fixed and athletes are free to attend any or all sessions.  I would encourage all those interested in rowing Varsity in the spring to attend AT LEAST one session.  This would include those not currently participating in the winter training at the high school.

 

I will have a sign-up sheet starting this Saturday at practice.  If there are sessions where there are fewer athletes, I am currently working to see if I can open it to the Varsity Girl’s program.  I need to ask the university because the contract is currently for the Boy’s.  More information will follow, as soon as I hear back form the university.  But I will leave space on the sign-up sheet for the girls to sign up if they would like to participate, to gauge interest.

 

Thanks.
